Abstract

Objective: Update on simulation-based education and its evolution in North America.

Data sources: Main articles including those published within the last five years and indexed in Medline, and unpublished data from the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada have been analyzed.

Data synthesis: After a review of historical development of simulation in North America, this article draw the place of simulation in healthcare, for medical education, research and assessment. Funding and accreditation of simulation centres are also discussed.

Conclusion: Simulation is fully integrated in healthcare in North America and represents one of the main elements for healthcare professional education. Simulation is also a symbol of excellence for health and teaching institutions. The evolution of simulation in North America is likely to inform the future of simulation in France.
