Virtual Reality (VR) as an emerging and developing technology has received much attention in healthcare and trained different medical groups. Implementing specialized training in cardiac surgery is one of the riskiest and most sensitive issues related to clinical training. Studies have been conducted to train cardiac residents using this technology. This study aimed to identify the effects and features of VR technology in cardiology interventions training. This scoping review was conducted in 2021 by searching PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Sciences scientific databases by combining the related keywords. A data extraction form was used for data gathering. Data analyses were done through the content analysis method, and results were reported based on the study objectives. 21 studies were included; from the 777 articles found in the initial searches, seven (33.33%) were RCT studies. VR-based education studies in cardiology interventions have grown significantly in recent years. The main effects of applying VR include improved user attitude and satisfaction, improved performance after VR training, and improved training and learning. Input devices include tracking devices, point input devices, and controllers. Output devices were three main categories include graphics audios and haptic. The use of new technologies, especially VR, can improve the efficiency of medical training in clinical settings. It recommends that this technology train the necessary skills for heart surgery in cardiac residents before performing real surgery to reduce the potential risks and medical errors.
虚拟现实（VR）作为一项新兴且不断发展的技术，在医疗保健领域备受关注，并对不同医学群体进行了培训。开展心脏外科专业培训是临床培训中风险最高且最敏感的问题之一。已经开展了多项研究，利用这项技术培训心脏科住院医师。本研究旨在确定VR技术在心脏病学干预培训中的效果和特点。这项范围综述于2021年进行，通过组合相关关键词检索了PubMed、Scopus和Web of Sciences科学数据库。使用数据提取表收集数据。通过内容分析法进行数据分析，并根据研究目标报告结果。纳入了21项研究；在初步检索中找到的777篇文章中，有7篇（33.33%）是随机对照试验研究。近年来，基于VR的心脏病学干预教育研究显著增加。应用VR的主要效果包括改善用户态度和满意度、VR培训后提高表现，以及改善培训和学习。输入设备包括跟踪设备、点输入设备和控制器。输出设备主要有三类，包括图形、音频和触觉设备。使用新技术，尤其是VR，可以提高临床环境中医学培训的效率。建议在心脏科住院医师进行实际手术前，利用这项技术培训心脏手术所需技能，以降低潜在风险和医疗差错。
