Hi Tarig, The use of simulations for training has started in Indian medical colleges in last 2-3 years only. Some of my collegues have done a project on it's effectiveness for emergency situations. and they have found that it really helps in finding out the right track for proceeding in the treatment and decision making. Some of the colleges from shrilanka have seen the positive findings.

The use as CPR management is definitely useful for the students. In case of India the price of these is the factor which is main hurdle for using these.

Check out the Duke-NUS graduate school of medicine's work in this area in Singapore

Many thanks for your responses

The following publication touches on this. However, the authors only measured the first level of the Kirkpatrick Model -- Did they like it? If you searched Web of Science for articles that cite this work you might find more research that would help you.

Thanks a lot Edward,its really helpful.

Hi,

In Colombia clinical simulation had increased outcomes in patient safety, but already I don´t have studies for you.

On this link you can find information in another country. http://med-ed-online.net/index.php/meo/article/view/28796 

Thanks Jaime for the response
