A LOOK BACK AT HOW FAR WE’VE COME
In preparation for SIM Week, I want to take a look back to 2003. At the time, simulations had taken hold in the healthcare education field, and implementation was commonplace, but outcomes research demonstrating effectiveness was inconsistent, scattered, and methodological rigor and focus varied. It was then when the AMEE organization invited our team to address the question: What are the features and uses of high-fidelity medical simulations that lead to effective learning?
We reviewed, and synthesized the existing evidence beginning from 1969, and including nearly 700 articles from five literature databases The result was: “Features and uses of high-fidelity medical simulations that lead to effective learning: a BEME (Best Evidence Medical Education) systematic review,” published 15 years ago in early 2005.
It is an honor to know that the knowledge we shared 15 years ago has become the most cited simulation reference. As we celebrate global simulation professionals like you, I salute you for pushing simulation-based healthcare education forward and for contributing to the body of knowledge with research.
