Telesimulation uses telecommunication and simulation to educate and assess remote learners, obviating the need for instructors or learners to travel off site. Telesimulation increases access to and convenience of simulation-based education for sites that do not have formal simulation centers, including rural/remote areas. Telesimulation is feasible, improves knowledge and skills, and is favorably received by learners and instructors. In general, telesimulation has been shown to be effective for neonatal resuscitation training, even in low- and middle-income countries. Post telesimulation debriefing, termed teledebriefing, requires many of the skills of in-person debriefing, and teledebriefing can optimize learning by exposing learners to content experts in geographically distant sites or from specialties not available locally. When implementing telesimulation for neonatal resuscitation training, key considerations include program design, telecommunication platform, pre-telesimulation preparation, and teledebriefing. Additional research is needed to identify whether lessons learned during telesimulation translate to clinical practice and impact patient outcomes.
远程模拟使用电信和模拟技术来教育和评估远程学习者,避免了教师或学习者出差的需要。远程模拟增加了没有正式模拟中心的地点(包括农村/偏远地区)获得基于模拟的教育的机会和便利性。远程模拟是可行的,可以提高知识和技能,并且受到学习者和教师的欢迎。一般来说,即使在低收入和中等收入国家,远程模拟也已被证明对新生儿复苏培训有效。远程模拟后的讨论,称为远程讨论,需要许多现场讨论的技能,并且远程讨论可以通过使学习者接触到地理上遥远地点或当地没有的专业领域的内容专家来优化学习。在实施新生儿复苏培训的远程模拟时,需要考虑的关键因素包括方案设计、电信平台、远程模拟前的准备以及远程讨论。需要进一步的研究来确定在远程模拟过程中获得的经验是否转化为临床实践并影响患者的结果。
