Introduction The scope and use of simulation in medical education and healthcare training has increased considerably over the past 20 years, as technology has advanced rapidly and increasing fidelity has become standard. This study aims to explore O&G trainees attitudes and beliefs regarding augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR), and their attitudes towards their incorporation into relevant curricula. Methods This was a qualitative descriptive study using thematic analysis. An initial pilot focus group was followed by semi-structured interviews. Data was analysed using iterative content analysis. Relevant themes were identified during the focus ground and explored in greater detail during semi-structured interviews. Results Nine trainees participated in total; one focus group and two individual interviews were conducted. Five key themes were identified: the value and importance of education, what works, the importance of a supportive educator and peer, the difference between simulation and real-life, and VR-associated hope. Conclusions Trainees had little experience or knowledge of AR and VR simulation. They believe that simulation will be more important in future, and that it has potential for training. Further exposure and education involving AR and VR will be required for it to become an integral part of education and training.
