Abstract

SummaryThis article covers the topic of medium to high fidelity anaesthesia simulation. Specifically, it refers to simulation of anaesthesia scenarios using a whole body manikin with physiological modelling, based in a simulated operating theatre setting. It draws on the author's own experiences in this area to offer practical answers to common questions, including: What is an anaesthesia simulator good for? Who is likely to buy one? What else will I have to buy? Who is going to pay? What are the physical requirements for a simulator room? What can I use the simulator for? and Who should take charge?
