Abstract:
Simulation for obstetric emergencies has progressed from being a good idea in theory to the level of an evidence-based intervention that can improve outcomes. Though not a stand-alone solution, the inclusion of simulation for training individuals and teams to react and perform correctly when obstetric emergencies occur is a critical part of a comprehensive strategy to improve outcomes for both the mother and baby. In this article, we will briefly review both the recent history of simulation for obstetric emergencies and then examine the most current evidence for specific emergencies.
