“…The study characteristics are presented in the Table 1. Most of the studies on simulation-based training were developed in response to SARS-CoV-2 (n = 117, 79.1%) 6–8,16–128 . Eighteen were motivated by Ebola outbreaks (12.2%), 129–146 7 by influenza (4.7%), 147–153 3 by MERS (2%), 154–156 and 3 by pandemics in general (2%) 157–159 …”

Summary StatementThe objective of this research was to identify and review studies that have evaluated the impact of simulation-based training on health care professionals during epidemics.All studies in health care simulation-based training published during the last 5 epidemics with a global impact (SARS-CoV, H1N1, MERS, Ebola, SARS-CoV-2; through July 2021) were selected from a systematic search of PUBMED, EMBASE, and key journals.The search strategy identified 274 studies; 148 met the inclusion criteria and were included. Most of the studies were developed in response to SARS-CoV-2 infection (n = 117, 79.1%), used a descriptive approach (n = 54, 36.5%), and were used to train technical skills (n = 82, 55.4%).This review demonstrates a growing interest in publications related to health care simulation and epidemics. Most of the literature is marked by limited study designs and outcome measurements, although there is a trend toward the use of more refined methodologies in the most recent publications. Further research should seek the best evidence-based instructional strategies to design training programs in preparation for future outbreaks.

“…Simulation proved to be an invaluable tool in development of new processes and work environments as well as creating a means for the training of the multiprofessional team tasked with providing patient care in this new context [34]. ACOG and the Society for Obstetric Anesthesiology and Perinatology (SOAP) quickly developed scenarios to assist in team training for the obstetric and anesthetic care of COVID-19 infected parturients [35,36]. Many organizations utilized simulation as a means to evaluate changes made to the labor and delivery unit and impacted workflows as a response to the risk of COVID-19 transmission [37,38].…”

Purpose of review Simulation-based training remains an integral component of medical education by providing a well tolerated, controlled, and replicable environment for healthcare professionals to enhance their skills and improve patient outcomes. Simulation technology applied to obstetric anesthesiology continues to evolve as a valuable tool for the training and assessment of the multidisciplinary obstetric care team. Recent findings Simulation-based technology has continued to play a role in training and assessment, including recent work on interdisciplinary communication, recognition, and management of obstetric hemorrhage, and support in the low or strained resource setting. The COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated the evolution of simulation-based training away from a reliance on in-situ or high-fidelity manikin-based approaches toward an increasing utilization of modalities that allow for remote or asynchronous training. Summary The evolution of simulation for interdisciplinary training and assessment in obstetric anesthesia has accelerated, playing a greater role in aspects of communication, management of hemorrhage and supporting low or strained resource settings. Augmented reality, virtual reality and mixed reality have advanced dramatically, spurred on by the need for remote and asynchronous simulation-based training during the pandemic.

“…Um estudo mostrou que após o uso da simulação in situ foi notório a melhora no desempenho dos profissionais e aumento do preparo da equipe. Este mesmo estudo ainda salienta que os profissionais que participaram de simulações repetidas durante dois anos se encontravam mais confiantes e confortáveis do que os profissionais não treinados ( MCLAUGHLIN et al, 2018;EUBANKS et al, 2020).…”

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.
