2. Simulation in Health Care Verbal
Role play
Standardised patient
Screen-based
Part-task Trainers
Computerised Mannequin
Virtual Reality
Reminder of the many facets simulation can and is taking in health careReminder of the many facets simulation can and is taking in health care
5. Part Task TrainersNot True Simulators But Widely Used Part-task trainers, e.g.:
IV arms, skeletons, airway trainers
ResusciAnne & equivalent (CPR, ACLS)
Harvey (cardiac auscultation)
6. Late 1990s - Early 2000s:New Manufacturers for Simulators Laerdal: SimMan (Mannequin-based)
7. Procedure / Surgery Simulation and Part-Task Training Important in many medical domains:
surgical, endoscopic, & cath. procedures

13. Human Factors (CRM) Training Helmreich, RL et al: Aviation, Space Environ.Med. 61:576-579 (1990)
15. So, the IOM reminds us that health care is probably THE most complex of human endeavours!
And of course it makes frequent reference to the place of simulation training – in particular CRM-style training – to improve the system.
Establish interdisciplinary team training programs that incorporate proven methods such as Crew Resource Management (CRM) techniques employed in aviation - including simulation.

16. Simulation in Health Care vs. in Other Industries Unlike other industries we don’t build human beings -- we don’t even get the manual!
Pt. simulators inherently less realistic
But then…there is no “average” patient
In other industries training & assessment is built into the work over a whole career… not (yet) in health care
17. Patient Simulation: Where Are We Now? Patient simulation is a maturing new endeavour
“… not the end, not the beginning of the end, maybe the end of the beginning”!
Manufacturers of diverse products
Diverse curricula & target populations
18. Domains using simulation Undergraduate & Postgraduate
Paramedics & Emergency Medicine
Anaesthesia, Surgery
Primary Care Practitioners
Intensive Care Medicine/ Arrest Teams
Obstetrics/ Neonatal
Interventional Radiology & Cardiology
Endoscopy Simulation in all its forms is becoming increasingly widespread in health care. Who is NOT using it?
Underlined are the groups that our Centre and similar centres use simulation for – in our case with a CRM emphasis. All the underlined groups are involved in complete or near complete true team training.
We have had little “buy in” at the surgical level – one of the original criticisms of CRM by Gaba is that it was not true team training! That still holds true in terms of OR training – but is not the case with pretty much all other aspects of what we do.
