Despite the positive findings on results of simulation-based health-care education, what truly makes it successful remains unclear. We do not know enough about when and how learning environment (SBLE) should be applied. Thus, specific aim this thematic-review study was to determine facilitators’ peda-gogical activities are in education process. For purpose, reviewed 83 previous studies which pe...

background: post partum hemorrhage is one of the common causes in maternal morbidity and mortality and its outcome depends on accurate estimation of blood loss which needs acquiring skills. in this study, we decided to evaluate the effect of education on visual blood volume estimation by using simulation. method: this prospective study was done in mashhad university of medical sciences and 40 o...

This paper presents a description of, and some reflections around, the experience of implementing simulation-based education within a nursing education programme in a low-income context. The students in the nursing education programme found the simulation sessions to be useful, motivating and a realistic learning method. Our experience may provide useful insight for other nursing education prog...

BACKGROUND Using computer-based simulation systems in medical education is becoming more and more common. Although the benefits of practicing with these systems in medical education have been demonstrated, advantages of using computer-based simulation in emergency medicine education are less validated. The aim of the present study was to assess the success rates of final year medical students i...

background: little is known about how to introduce complex technologies like arthroscopy into low-income countries. thus, we compared low- versus high-resource intensive methods of teaching basic arthroscopic skills in a randomized controlled trial in haiti. methods: forty-eight haitian orthopaedic surgeons and residents attending an orthopaedic conference in haiti were block randomized to rece...

Proper education of a modeling and simulation professional meeting the extensive criteria imposed by the community poses significant challenges. In this paper, we explore the formation of a university-based education in modeling and simulation to meet the challenges. We examine the factors affecting the composition of a modeling and simulation course. Based on the anticipated consequences, we p...

Objective: In this trial, we intend to assess the effect of simulation-based education approach on advanced cardiovascular life support skills among medical students. Methods: Through convenient sampling method, 40 interns of Mashhad University of Medical Sciences in their emergency medicine rotation (from September to December 2012) participated in th...

BACKGROUND The present study was designed to implement an interprofessional simulation-based education program for nursing students and evaluate the influence of this program on nursing students' attitudes toward interprofessional education and knowledge about operating room nursing. METHODS Nursing students were randomly assigned to either the interprofessional simulation-based education or ...
