The State of Simulation in Emergency Medicine Residency Programs in the United States.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Using simulation-based medical education has proven to be an effective instructional strategy both procedurally and clinically. Emergency medicine (EM) residency programs use simulation in a variety of ways and settings. Given the ongoing development of the field and the recent expansion of EM training programs, our objective was to assess the current state of simulation use in Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME)-approved EM residency programs in the United States.

Methods

We performed this cross-sectional national survey from July-September 2022. The survey was sent to the residency program directors of all 277 ACGME-accredited EM residency programs in the US. The survey focused on simulation use, technology, types of simulation (proced
