Abstract

Otolaryngologists have been at the forefront of creatively using simulation to enhance education, research, and system processes and are now at the forefront of developing simulators and expanding the field of simulation. Airway simulators have been used for almost 100 years, otology simulators for about 70 years, and soft tissue simulators for more than 30 years. Simulation has blossomed with a contemporary understanding of educational principles and quickly evolving methods of simulator fabrication. Simulators are being used in otology, sinus and rhinology, and airway and head and neck surgical skill development. Simulation is also being used to improve professionalism and teamwork skills and even to improve the systems we work within. This chapter provides a glimpse into the rapid growth of simulation in the field of otolaryngology and head and neck surgery.
