Background: Simulation has been a method used in pilots training for many years. It has been an effective method of training pilots for situations that may occur. Preparation with a low risk and a high fidelity should therefore be possible to use in other occupations. In healthcare, simulation is a relatively new method and has so far limited research. Aim: The aim of this study was to illuminate nurses' experience of simulated training. Method: To illustrate the experience of simulated training, a literature review was chosen as a method and both qualitative and quantitative articles were chosen. An analysis of twelve scientific articles were carried out. Result: Qualitative data showed that nurses' experience of simulated training was generally positive and that the nurses could use simulation as a tool for development. Quantitative data enhanced results of knowledge and confidence after simulation training but also that feedback and reflection were important for learning. Conclusion: By using simulation training, nurses can develop their skills, learn new skills and practice skills that they do not use frequently. Using simulation, high risk situations with deteriorating patient, can be practiced with low risk for the actual patient. Nurses´ experience, knowledge and skills can during simulation, as a safe environment, develop and gain patient safety and good patient outcome in real-life situations.
