Summary
The use of simulation is a method of training for both individuals and teams. It allows learners to acquire skills in a non-threatening environment while avoiding harm to patients. It can be harnessed as a tool for learning a new skill or procedure through to exposing teams of experienced personnel to an innovative approach to develop or consolidate technical and non-technical skills incorporating teamwork skills.
Simulation-based training provides experiential opportunities for development of team cognition that may build upon, or even replace actual clinical experience, this being particularly beneficial for critical clinical incidents scenarios that are fortunately rare or uncommon within obstetrics, for example maternal cardiac arrest, amniotic fluid embolism and eclampsia as well as rehearsal for use of protocols, for example sepsis care bundles.
