Technology that allows the integration of virtual objects into the physical real world, supplementing it in a way that they seem to coexist in the same space (Zhou, Duh & Billinghurst, 2008).
The combination of real with virtual, real time interactivity and three dimensional (3D) virtual content are the three commonly accepted characteristics of AR systems (Azuma, 1997).

To investigate the effect of Augmented Reality (AR) in nursing student’s decision making skills about wound care, by comparing the usage of the e-FER simulator with and without the support of AR to visualize the wounds.
Online clinical decision-making simulator used in the initial training of nurses, allowing to simulate the diagnosis and treatment of virtual clinical cases of chronic wounds.
The main goal is to promote the healing of the patient’s wound by selecting the best diagnosis and treatment solution, in this order. The effectiveness of e-FER was demonstrated by Costa (2010).
In general, AR has shown to be an effective tool to develop clinical skills when compared with other methods, with a greater impact on inexperienced learners, and its transfer to real world scenarios.
Questionnaire
AR improved participants performance in the diagnosis, when compared to using the traditional version of e-FER, with statistically significant differences (p<0,01) in the Mann-Whitney U and Wilcoxon tests.
