Summary The Mobile Smart Cyber Operating Theater (Mobile SCOT), developed by Tokyo Women’s Medical University and NTT DOCOMO, utilizes 5G and multi-access cloud
technologies to support remote medical treatment. By enabling the real-time sharing of patient data and images, this system facilitates rapid decision-making among surgeons
and nurses in remote locations. This study evaluated whether remote treatment and telemedicine support could enhance novice nurses' patient observation skills in nursing education.
A telemedicine demonstration was conducted in a simulated disaster scenario, involving operating-room nurses with less than one year of experience. Interviews revealed that novice nurses, due to limited experience and the high-pressure environment, sometimes struggled to assess patient conditions. Expert-provided, focused guidance on specific observations allowed novices to rapidly improve their evaluation skills. When novices deviated from instructions, corrective feedback fostered a “shared perspective,” boosting their confidence and sense of security.
The findings confirm that shared perspectives with experts in telemedicine significantly enhance patient observation skills among novice nurses. This system holds potential for replicating expert perspective patterns in nursing education, addressing the need for structured learning methods. The study highlights the role of Mobile SCOT in advancing telemedicine practices and improving disaster scenario readiness.
