Area of Science:

Medical Simulation
Neonatal Care
Pediatric Surgery

Background:

Hydrops fetalis (HF) is a severe condition requiring specialized neonatal resuscitation.
Training for rare, high-stakes neonatal procedures is challenging due to limited opportunities.
Existing simulation models may lack authenticity or reusability for comprehensive training.

Purpose of the Study:

To describe the development of an authentic and reusable simulation model for hydrops fetalis.
To provide a training tool for neonatal intensive care providers to practice critical procedures.
To enhance preparedness for managing rare neonatal emergencies.

Main Methods:

Development of a realistic newborn model exhibiting hydrops fetalis.
Incorporation of features for ease of assembly and reusability.
Inclusion of learning objectives and a critical action checklist for structured simulation.

Main Results:

The created model is authentic, reusable, and easy to assemble.
The model facilitates practice of rare, life-saving procedures for neonatal care.
Simulation scenarios can be adapted for varying levels of complexity.

Conclusions:

This hydrops fetalis simulation model offers a valuable training resource for neonatal intensive care.
The model enhances provider skills in managing rare and critical neonatal conditions.
Simulation-based training with this model can improve patient outcomes in high-risk neonates.
