Risk assessment processes within healthcare simulation centers: A scoping review

Le résumé fourni par la source

Objectives All healthcare workplace activities contain inherent safety threats; however, these may be potentially unique within the context of a simulation center. Simulation prioritises safety yet introduces risks. This scoping review aims to map the existing literature on risk assessment in healthcare simulation centers and identify how risk is assessed, measured and mitigated in these spaces. Design The review adhered to the Joanna Briggs Population, Concept and Context (PCC) mnemonic, was reported using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta Analysis extension for Scoping reviews (PRISMA-ScR) guidelines and registered with Open Science Framework. Results A total of 490 articles were found, however only 8 studies met the inclusion criteria. The review highlights a lack of literature regarding the proactive assessment of risks in simulation learning. Conclusion There is a need for the development and implementation of standardized risk assessment frameworks to ensure the safety of nursing faculty and students during simulation-based learning activities.
