Simulation is a promising pedagogical tool in the area of medical education. High- fidelity simulators can reproduce realistic environments or clinical situations. This allows for the practice of teamwork and communication skills, thereby enhancing reflective reasoning and experiential learning. Use of high-fidelity simulators is not limited to the medical and aeronautical fields, but has developed in a large number of nonmedical organizations as well. The techniques and pedagogical tools which have evolved through the use of nonmedical simulations serve not only as teaching examples but also as avenues which can help further the evolution of the concept of high-fidelity simulation in the field of medicine. This paper presents examples of high-fidelity simulations in the military, maritime, and aeronautical fields. We compare the implementation of high-fidelity simulation in the medical and nonmedical domains, and discuss the possibilities and limitations of simulators in medicine, based on recent nonmedical applications.
模拟是医学教育领域一种很有前景的教学工具。高保真模拟器可以再现逼真的环境或临床场景。这使得团队协作和沟通技能得以练习,从而增强反思性推理和体验式学习。高保真模拟器的使用不仅限于医学和航空领域,在大量非医学组织中也有发展。通过使用非医学模拟而发展起来的技术和教学工具不仅可作为教学示例,还能作为有助于推动医学领域高保真模拟概念进一步发展的途径。本文介绍了军事、海事和航空领域的高保真模拟示例。我们比较了高保真模拟在医学和非医学领域的实施情况,并基于近期的非医学应用探讨了医学中模拟器的可能性和局限性。
