TY - JOUR AU - Stocker, Martin AU - Laine, Kathryn AU - Ulmer, Francis PY - 2017 DA - 2017/06/17 TI - Use of simulation-based medical training in Swiss pediatric hospitals: a national survey JO - BMC Medical Education SP - 104 VL - 17 IS - 1 AB - Simulation-based medical training (SBMT) is a powerful tool for continuing medical education. In contrast to the Anglo-Saxon medical education community, up until recently, SBMT was scarce in continental Europe’s pediatric health care education: In 2009, only 3 Swiss pediatric health care institutions used SBMT. The Swiss catalogue of objectives in Pediatrics does not acknowledge SBMT. The aim of this survey is to describe and analyze the current state of SBMT in Swiss pediatric hospitals and health care departments.
