Clinical Trial Summary

- A novel virtual world programme with over 240 multiple choice questions was developed to assess the competencies in managing an open fracture of the lower limb according to the British Orthopaedic Association Standards for Trauma (BOAST) and Advanced Trauma Life support (ATLS) guidelines. - A longitudinal, observational, multi-centre prospective cohort study was conducted at Imperial College London. - Primary objective consisted of objective scores calculated in real-time from the 240 multiple choice questions between Novices, Intermediates and Experts. - Participants who had either completed ATLS training, or had familiarised themselves with BOAST guidelines were also identified and correlated with objective scores.
