The current student body will, by and large, seek online resources to supplement their learning. However, resources that are freely available online vary in accuracy and quality, and the vast majority rely on passive learning. Therefore, there is a need for interactive physiology teaching resources that facilitate application of knowledge, that can be accessed by students in their own time. The aim of this study was to design a digital escape room on the topic of cardiac arrhythmias and evaluate this resource as a consolidation exercise to support learning and enjoyment of physiology. The digital escape room was designed as a series of interactive puzzles and created using a website page builder on a freely accessible WordPress site. To facilitate engagement, the escape room incorporated a countdown timer. Second year medical students were invited to play the digital escape room remotely as a group exercise following delivery of the relevant teaching. Evaluation of the resource took place quantitatively using Google Analytics and Tag Manager software, and qualitatively using a questionnaire (Microsoft Forms). Quantitative evaluation suggested that the puzzles were created across a range of difficulties, but that most groups were able to complete the exercise and remained engaged throughout. Student feedback suggests that the format of the resource was rated positively, and most participants felt that the game helped to consolidate and apply their knowledge of cardiovascular physiology. Future studies will focus on examining whether the cardiovascular-themed digital escape room improves knowledge attainment amongst students studying physiology in higher education.
