Simulation‐based medical education in anesthesiology and intensive care: A continuing evolution in Hong Kong
Abstract Simulation‐based medical education (SBME) has become a cornerstone in postgraduate medical training, particularly in anesthesiology and intensive care. This article reflects on the evolution of SBME in Hong Kong, highlighting its impact on technical and nontechnical skill development, multidisciplinary collaboration, and patient safety. We outline the current state of SBME using an outcome–process–structure framework and propose six key areas for future advancement, including curriculum evaluation and expansion, longitudinal faculty development, and the integration of advanced technologies. By addressing these areas, SBME can continue to enhance training quality and patient outcomes in Hong Kong.
