Simulation Models for Training in Pediatric General, Thoracic, Plastic, and Urologic Surgery in Low-resource Settings: A Scoping Review
Topic overview
This scoping review examines simulation models for training pediatric surgeons across multiple subspecialties, emphasizing affordable options suitable for resource-limited environments. The study catalogs existing low-cost simulation tools that can enhance surgical education where access to traditional training resources may be constrained.
Key takeaways
- Simulation-based training can effectively supplement hands-on surgical education in pediatric specialties.
- Low-cost simulation models exist for pediatric general, thoracic, plastic, and urologic procedures.
- Simulation tools are particularly valuable in low-resource settings where clinical case volume may be limited.
- Cost-effective models enable broader access to surgical skills training without expensive commercial simulators.
