Simulation in medical education | A novel full-scale immersive team-based simulation environment for objective performance assessment of surgical excellence
Abstract:
The aim of the research work was to investigate the development of a simulated operating room which could be an option for conducting assessment and training of surgical skills within a multidisciplinary controlled environment.
The findings will enable other national/international research and simulation centers to develop more sophisticated training environments and the hope exists that this work will trigger a new generation of simulators which will eventually improve medical education of multidisciplinary teams and hence increase patient safety and raise the quality of patient care.
