Objective: This study aimed to review the literature on research trends in the use of images and videos relating to prehospital care in medical education, and to identify future issues.
Methods: A literature searches from January 2000 to February 2021 was conducted using the Pubmed, CINAHL and Ichushi-Web and the papers that met the final eligibility criteria were included in the review.
Results: 30 papers that met all the eligibility criteria were included in the review. The majority of the papers were quasi-experimental studies, studies that collected data in non-clinical settings, studies using images or videos for educational treatment, and studies using human ratings such as rating scales or tests as evaluation indicators.
Conclusion: For the future, it is necessary to accumulate evidence on the use of images and videos in medical education for prehospital care, as well as high-quality experimental and quasi-experimental studies, such as studies using data captured in clinical settings and studies considering the automation of images and videos.
