Good practices in simulation-based education in ophthalmology – A thematic series. An initiative of the Simulation Subcommittee of the Ophthalmology Foundation Part IV: Recommendations for incorporating simulation-based education in ophthalmology training programs

Recommendations could be useful to guide institutions planning to incorporate simulation-based education (SBE) into their training programs or institutions that have an established program but want to benchmark it against best practices. An effective, inclusive, and enjoyable simulation learning env...

description Recommendations could be useful to guide institutions planning to incorporate simulation-based education (SBE) into their training programs or institutions that have an established program but want to benchmark it against best practices. An effective, inclusive, and enjoyable simulation learning environment must be created to optimize learning and skills development. Areas to consider when proposing recommendations for creating an effective SBE environment include the following: the environment, group learning, facilitators, and educational requirements. The common pitfalls in simulation design when simulations are not effective include inadequate prebriefing, cognitive overload, poor alignment with the real-world context or task, inadequate debriefing, and insufficient time for debriefing. The ethical imperatives of SBE must inform the training programs. The role players in the shared ethical values when using SBE include the patients, students, simulationists, and the simulators and simulated patients. SBE programs must be embedded into a curriculum and should not be an optional add-on. To ensure high standards of training in simulation centers, these centers must adhere to specific accreditation standards. SBE aims to create a better training environment, improve patient safety, and address the challenges regarding the training platform and the burden of disease in eye care globally. Surgical simulation in ophthalmology provides an opportunity for partnership between institutions nationally and across borders because simulation centers cannot function in isolation. Recommendations for creating collaborations and partnerships for surgical simulation training will enhance the impact of any eye care program.
