The Role of Medical Simulation in the Teaching of Emergencies in Clinical Pathology Laboratory

This study evaluates the effectiveness of a simulation workshop conducted at the Tangier Medical Simulation Center to train professionals in emergency medical biology techniques. The workshop, designed as a hybrid simulation, included participants from diverse professional backgrounds: 38% resident doctors in medical biology, 13% laboratory technicians, 44% technician students, and 6% equivalence biologists, predominantly female, with an average age of 23. The training involved a structured sequence of activities, including an initial briefing on medical biology emergency protocols, simulation of emergency sample collection, laboratory processing, and a final debriefing with skills assessment. The results demonstrated the workshop’s ability to enhance participants' mastery of emergency protocols, improve technical competencies, and strengthen crisis management abilities, emphasizing the value of simulation-based training in medical biology education.
