Conclusion Healthcare simulation is a valuable tool to improve patient safety. Simulation-
based education can focus on the necessary technical and nontechnical skills to enhance …

Background The complexity of the operating room requires a surgeon to have both technical
ability and an array of nontechnical skills. The emphasis on technical skills during surgical …

Background The dominant frameworks for describing how simulations support learning
emphasize increasing access to structured practice and the provision of feedback which are …

Objectives To identify and review the currently available simulators for prostate surgery and
