Summary Statement:
Mobile and remote simulation can be used as a research methodology to collect data in simulated environments to answer research questions pertaining to health care delivery. This research methodology can exponentially increase the reachable target study participants and provide generalizable conclusions. Using a large-scale national study in the United States as an exemplar, this article outlines the technology and equipment required to conduct mobile and remote simulations for research purposes. The cost associated with using mobile and remote simulations as well as the advantages and challenges of using this research methodology are also discussed.
