Urology Resident Training With an Unexpected Patient Death Scenario: Experiential Learning With High Fidelity Simulation

Abstract

Evaluation of urology resident performance was possible during an unexpected patient death scenario. Upon completion of the scenario perceived competency of the simulation task was increased. High fidelity simulation was found to be an effective method for teaching and assessing the acquisition of nontechnical skills. All residents agreed that the simulation was useful and should be included in urological training.
