What is Simulation?
“Simulation is a training and feedback technique in which learners practice tasks and processes under realistic settings and circumstances using tools and models, such as virtual reality, and utilizing feedback from observers, such as professors, peers, actor-patients, and video cameras.”
(AIMS, 2005, p. 1)
Medical Simulation
“Medical simulation allows students and experienced clinicians to learn or improve a skill or demonstrate competency [using technology] without harming the patient.”
(AIMS, 2005, p. 1)

Medical Simulation
Simulation is a training and feedback method in which learners practice tasks and processes in lifelike circumstances using models or virtual reality, with feedback from observers, peers, actor-patients, and video cameras to assist improvement in skills.

Loma Linda Example
Dr. Daniels Prepared to Setup Educational Simulation
Rationale for Medical Simulation
Medical errors kill as many as 98,000 people annually (cost: $37 to $50 billion)The need to how quickly trained medical professionals to react to a health crisisMedical residents are operating under rules that limit the direct interactions between students and instructorsNursing shortages expected to reach 20% by the year 2020 - , are forcing some health care facilities to implement mandatory overtime for nurses and increased patient care loads: contributing to an already high number of stress related errors.
(AIMS, 2004)
Medical Simulation Setup
Physician/Medical Educator Create Complex Models of Heath-care Patients’ Behaviors Under Real Heath Care Crisis ConditionsPatients’ Vital Signs, Crisis Behaviors, Interventions, and Treatment Outcomes are DocumentedData from Real Patients are Programmed into Simulator’s Portfolio: Computers, Mannequins, and Clinician’s Educational Resources
Virtual Patient (Mannequins) Setup
Mannequin Prep as Real Human and Hookup to Simulator
Simulator Setup
Dr. Daniels Transferred Real/Hypothetical Patient’s Information and Operating Conditions to Simulator From Real Patient’s Stats.
Approaches to Simulation
A full environment simulator is similar to flight simulators used to train pilots. The pilot is immersed in a complete replica of the cockpit environment. In medicine, sophisticated mannequins, known as patient simulators provides health care professionals with a computer-based patient that breathes, responds to drugs, talks, and drives all the clinical monitors in the operating room, e.g., blood pressure and pulse rate. Task trainers provide a simulated subset of functionality, such as how to give a smallpox inoculation or how to insert a chest tube.
Approaches to Simulation, cont.
Computer-based training provides software programs that train and assess clinical knowledge and decision-making skills.
Simulated/standardized patients allow students to interact with actors trained to act as patients providing students with valuable feedback on, among other things, bedside manner.

Simulation Training Environment
Trainees Work with Clinical Instructor as if with real patientsTrainees provides interventions to simulated real-health crisis conditionsClinical-Instructor acts as guide to trainee’s acquisition and demonstrations of health treatment competencies: skills and knowledgeMannequins respond and behavior as real-humans to treatment: physical care and medication

Future of Simulation in Medical Education
“In medical education, simulation will play a larger roll. The future is open especially with new procedures (laparoscopy) and new equipment (intubation), the learner can “see one, try many, do one successfully.“
