Background: Quality improvement in higher education is one of the approaches which is taken into consideration in many higher education systems in recent decades. On the other hand, to respond to the rapid changes in the medical field, medical education should be changed and new training methods should be used. One of these methods is simulation-based training. Methods: This is a review a...

Redefining Simulation Fidelity for Healthcare Education

Background. “Fidelity” an intrinsic property of simulation is crucial to simulation design and educational effectiveness. Yet the term fidelity is inconsistently used, which makes it difficult to draw inferences from current literature and translate research to practice. Aim. In this article, we attempt to bring some clarity to the term simulation fidelity in healthcare education. Method. We ar...
