In aviation, simulation environments for team training have been used for more than 30 years. The first flight simulators for pilot training date back more than a century.
In the medical domain, anaesthetists were the first medical experts who made the first steps towards using a simulated environment as a training framework. For example, anaesthesia crisis resource management (ACRM) is derived from Crew resource management (CRM), originally developed by NASA for the aviation industry, and adopts several key elements such as simulation of adverse situations, training of situation awareness, decision-making, communication and the concept of debriefing. Pioneered by David Gaba in the late 1980s, computerized mannequin simulators have been developed for training and performance assessment of anaesthetists and have been in use for more than two decades. Today, mannequin simulators can be connected to medical ventilators and monitoring devices, physiologically respond to drug administration and show pathologic conditions In education and training of surgeons, orthopedists and radiologists, skill training can take a wide spectrum of forms, ranging from animal or cadaver tissue models to synthetic or computerized simulators. In particular, virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) simulators are increasingly used as a learning environment for e.g. interventionaly radiology, orthopedics, ophthalmology, endoscopic interventions, spinal surgery and most recently neurosurgery.
In this seminar, we will discuss the scientific and technological foundations of medical simulation. We will illuminate the role of simulation in medical education, spanning the continuum of educational levels and bridging a multitude of health care professions. We will investigate the learning theory and methodology involved, e.g. perceptual learning, metric-based training, deliberate practice, as well as the approaches used to objectively and quantitatively measure its effectiveness and efficiency.
