Declarations
:
: This project was conducted in accordance with international guidelines and regulations including those in the Declaration of Helsinki and the ones followed at the University of Ottawa. As a QI study, this work was deemed exempt by the Health Sciences and Science Research Ethics Board at the University of Ottawa on December 8, 2021. The exemption determination permitted verbal consent procedures for participation and dissemination of anonymized findings. Participants were invited to complete a VR escape room experience, a post-session survey, and a think-aloud session. Participants were informed that participation was voluntary, that they could withdraw at any time, and that de-identified feedback from surveys and think-aloud observations could be used for publication. Verbal consent was obtained prior to participation by the senior author (KJD).
