+Outcome measures

Primary outcomes

  • How many countries affiliated with WFSA have some type of simulation training included in the postgraduate curriculum? [3 months]: Number of WFSA-affiliated countries with obligatory training or optional training.
  • How many countries affiliated with WFSA have obligatory simulation training in Anaesthesia and Intensive Care? [3 months]: Prevalence of obligatory simulation training in postgraduate training in Anaesthesia and Intensive Care.

Secondary outcomes

  • What is required of the HCP to be able to provide anaesthesia unsupervised worldwide? [3 months]: Prevalence of answers about what is required of HCPs to provide unsupervised anaesthesia. The options are predefined; if these do not fit, participants could choose the "other" option and specify it as an open question.
  • How extensive is the simulation training in Anaesthesiology and Intensive Care in countries affiliated with WFSA? [3 months]: The number of days of simulation training is obligatory or advisable during postgraduate training in Anaesthesia and Intensive Care. Also, the frequency of subsequent training components.
  • Specification of simulation training [3 months]: The prevalence of simulation modalities (low-fidelity simulation, high-fidelity simulation, etc.) across WFSA-affiliated countries. The options are predefined, or if these do not fit, participants could choose "other" and specify in an open question. The prevalence of themes covered by simulation training.
  • What are the major barriers limiting the wider implementation of simulation-based education in anaesthesia residency training in countries affiliated with WFSA? [3 months]: The prevalence of major barriers. The participants will choose from predefined options; if these do not fit, they can select the "other" option and specify it in an open question.
  • What role do artificial intelligence and virtual reality play in simulation training? [3 months]: The prevalence of answers given on the theme of AI and VR.
