Abstract

In order to achieve a qualitatively high-grade standard of operations and follow-up monitoring of operations as well as a trouble-free communication in interprofessional teams and an overall high level of safety in the treatment of patients, simulation techniques are increasingly being implemented even in surgery. This article gives an overview of these aspects. Attention should be paid to the fact that simulation should always only be a part of a didactic concept that must be strictly flanked by learning targets and control of the learning targets and also by definition can only approximate to the real situation.

Um einen qualitativ hochwertigen Standard bei Operationen und operationsbegleitenden Abläufen sowie eine reibungslose Kommunikation in interprofessionellen Teams und eine insgesamt hohe Sicherheit in der Versorgung der Patienten zu erwirken, werden zunehmend auch in der Chirurgie Simulationstechniken eingesetzt. Dieser Beitrag gibt hierzu einen Überblick. Zu beachten ist, dass Simulation immer nur ein Teil eines didaktischen Konzeptes sein sollte, das strikt von Lernzielen und einer Lernzielkontrolle flankiert werden muss und sich zudem definitionsgemäß an die reale Situation nur annähern kann.

Keywords: Application areas; Augmented reality; Simulation centers; Simulation concepts; Virtual reality.
