For decades, simulation has been used as a training tool to evaluate the performance
of airline pilots, astronauts, nuclear engineers, and military personnel. Simulation
in medicine was first introduced in the 1960s, although increased attention to medical
simulation did not emerge until the 1980s when advances in technology allowed for
increased feasibility in producing high-fidelity simulators [
