Medical simulation in medical science education
Journal Title: European Journal of Medical Technologies - Year 2015, Vol 13, Issue 4
Abstract
Simulation is described as a reproduction, imitation of a phenomenon or action by using the model that is the most accurate copy. Today medical simulation is the one of the most actively developing methods of education in medical professions. Learning standards in the field of medical sciences emphasize three aspects of education: knowledge, skills and social competencies. Medical universities lay emphasis on the creation of medical simulation centers and attempt to standardize education according to the global trends. Learning through medical simulation is much more than an normal training with phantoms, moreover medical simulation perceived as a game is often associated with the attractive form of education. This form of education fosters memorizing and consolidating the knowledge or skills which student already possesses. In contrast, the use of high-fidelity simulators in medical education and training helps to increase patients’ safety.
