Introduction: The in situ simulation modality is being used to train professionals. Objectives: Conduct literature searches on the main contributions of in situ simulation to the training of professionals in the health area and for hospital institutions. Methodology: Integrative review, with a qualitative approach. A search was carried out for full-text articles published from January 2017 to December 2022, in the BVS and Pubmed. Eighteen articles were selected for analysis. Results: 3 categories emerged: 1. Contributions of in situ simulation for health professionals; 2. For hospital institutions and 3. For healthcare users. Discussion: The in situ simulation brought several benefits, such as better preparation of professionals and the team, reduction of hospital costs and improvement of care processes that involve patient safety. Conclusion: The studies showed that in situ simulation is being characterized as a good training strategy for professionals who make up the multidisciplinary health team.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
