Medical Simulation Technology: Addressing the Challenges of Clinical Skills Training in China

The practice of medicine in China is fraught with challenges, including a strained dynamic between physicians and patients, heightened patient vigilance, a notable degree of clinical risk, and limited opportunities for hands-on training among medical students. Such realities have a profound impact on the acquisition of clinical skills among students, particularly in light of the primary challenge of mastering basic skills within a safe and non-clinical context. To address this pressing issue, medical simulation technology has emerged as a crucial tool for enhancing clinical medicine education.
