ABSTRACT: Background Simulation is known as an important tool for the learning of technical and non-technical skills without endangering patient safety. In Portugal, a National Pedagogical Plan for Anesthesiology Residents was created based on simulation training. This plan was designed according to the objectives set forth by the Portuguese Board of Anesthesiology. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of simulation training courses on the non-technical skills of medical residents in Anesthesiology. Methods Confidential questionnaires, pre- and post-course, were answered by all the residents that attended the different modules of the simulation training program at Centro Hospitalar e Universitário de Coimbra Biomedical Simulation Centre, Portugal, from February 2011 to March 2018.
