Abstract

Medical simulation is an educational strategy in which a particular set of conditions is created or replicated to resemble authentic situations that are possible in real life. In this commentary we discuss how simulation is used and how it can reduce medical error, improve teamwork and communication, and improve trust in the health care system.
