Learning goals
The main objective of the Clinical Simulation Center of the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences of the University of Barcelona is to work on technical and non-technical skills to expand experiential learning for the critically ill patient, in order to guarantee a higher quality, safer and more efficient assistance.
Technical skills extend into different areas of knowledge, such as semiology, basic and complex airway management, vascular access, basic and advanced life support, ultrasound examination, ECMO, etc.
Non-technical skills such as communication, leadership and teamwork teach us how to resolve critical situations that we can experience, and give us tools to approach them and do a reflective analysis.
That's how we work
Facilities
Our Clinical Simulation Center is one of the most advanced in terms of medical simulation in a university setting around Spain.
The spaces are equipped with audiovisual tools and the most advanced medical technology. In addition, we have the necessary methodological support to facilitate the translation from simulation to clinical practice.
We have:
- Clinical simulation rooms where cases are staged.
- Control rooms where all the coordination of the cases is carried out, supervising and directing the clinical simulation as well as the control of the audiovisual equipment.
- Debriefing rooms where we finish with the discussion and analysis of the evolution of the developed cases.
All of these spaces are equipped with sanitary furniture, advanced technology equipment and video and audio camera systems that allow cases to be recorded and viewed on site.
