Development and Implementation of Pediatric Critical Care Focused Simulation Workshop and Program in India

Journal Title: Journal Of Pediatric Critical Care - Year 2014, Vol 1, Issue 4

Abstract

Simulation-based learning has become a part of residency and fellowship training in many training programs in the United States. But, it has not been incorporated into the pediatric critical care medicine training in the developing countries like India. Simulation-based training allows rapid and repetitive learning of skills necessary to provide a high quality and safe care to critically ill children. There is a need to explore simulation as a tool to train pediatric and pediatric critical care medicine practitioners in the developing world. This is particularly pertinent to Indian subcontinent in which pediatric critical care medicine has grown by leaps and bounds over last decade. We hereby present one of the earliest reports of development and implementation of pediatric critical care focused simulation workshop and program in India.
