Background Emergency medicine faces the challenge of providing optimal care with limited resources. Especially in rare but critical situations (high-acuity low occurrence [HALO] situations), sound expertise is essential. Previous training approaches are time-limited and resource-intensive. Aim of the work Medical extended reality (MXR) offers promising solutions. This article gives insight into the different areas of MXR and shows the application of MXR in emergency medicine using the HALO-MXR concept as an example. Results and discussion MXR encompasses augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR) and mixed reality (MR). AR overlays digital information on the real world, enhancing perception and enabling interactive elements. VR creates an artificial three-dimensional (3D) environment in which the user is immersed. MR combines real and virtual elements. MXR offers advantages such as location-independent learning, virtual mentoring and scalability. However, it cannot replace existing training formats, but should be embedded in an overall concept. The HALO-MXR concept at Inselspital Bern includes e‑learning, simulation-based training in VR and on-site, and HALO-Assist support through augmented reality. HALO-Assist provides around-the-clock AR support for HALO procedures via audio and video communication as well as overlayed annotations, objects and flowcharts. Conclusion The integration of MXR into emergency medicine promises more efficient use of resources and enhanced training opportunities. The HALO-MXR concept demonstrates how MXR effectively combines simulation-based training in VR and AR assist to enhance the application of HALO procedures.
