Simulation in Emergency Medicine

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
The Comprehensive Textbook of Healthcare Simulation

Abstract

Emergency medicine is a specialty with a high decision load in an environment where communications and teamwork are essential to patient safety. These two factors combined with the wide range of uncommon yet critical illnesses and breadth of procedures make simulation training in emergency medicine a necessity. Driven by these demands, the emergency medicine simulation community has been at the forefront of simulation-based assessment and education over the last 10 years. This chapter will provide a description of the state of the art in emergency medicine simulation which is applicable both to emergency medicine educators and educators from other specialties. Included are discussions of simulation-based education through the entire range of training, team-based education, procedures, fellowships, equipment, space, and funding. Much of what has been done well in emergency medicine can be easily applied to a variety of clinical disciples. There is currently a strong national simulation community in emergency medicine that continues to work on future applications of simulation to high-stakes assessment, maintenance of certification, patient safety, and quality.
