Simulation-based training in paediatric emergency medicine.

Managing critically ill children is a rare and challenging event requiring training to ensure adequate and timely quality of care. Thus, health professionals train for pediatric emergencies in a simulated setting. Virtual reality (VR) is a promising modality for simulation, and current evidence highlights the potential of VR for simulating pediatric emergencies. However, more studies are needed to determine the aspects of VR design and implementation that support transfer of learning.
