1	Nursing Simulation: A Review of the Past 40 Years Nehring, Wendy M., Lashley, Felissa R. 01 August 2009 (has links) Simulation, in its many forms, has been a part of nursing education and practice for many years. The use of games, computer-assisted instruction, standardized patients, virtual reality, and low-fidelity to high-fidelity mannequins have appeared in the past 40 years, whereas anatomical models, partial task trainers, and role playing were used earlier. A historical examination of these many forms of simulation in nursing is presented, followed by a discussion of the roles of simulation in both nursing education and practice. A viewpoint concerning the future of simulation in nursing concludes this article. anatomical models computer-assisted instruction health care education high-fidelity patient simulation low-fidelity patient simulation nursing education nursing practice nursing research objective structured clinical experience partial task trainers standardized patients virtual reality College of Nursing Nursing
