• Technology-enhanced simulation for health professions education: a systematic review and meta-analysis. (2011, background): “When authors reported multiple measures of a single outcome (eg, multiple measures of efficiency), we selected in decreasing order of priority (1) the authordefined primary outcome; (2) a global or summary measure of effect; (3) the most clinically relevant measure; or (4) the mean of the measures r”
• Computerized Virtual Patients in Health Professions Education: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis (2010, result): “Similar to the present study, a meta-analysis of laparoscopic surgery simulation 16 found improved outcomes for simulation training compared with no training, as did systematic reviews of surgical simulation in general 17 and of colonoscopy and laparoscopic cholecystectomy simulation.”
• The Use of Immersive Virtual Reality in the Learning Sciences: Digital Transformations of Teachers, Students, and Social Context (2008, background): “This comparatively informal approach illustrates how VEs could be used to increase interest and inquiry in specific topic areas.”
• Training and simulation for patient safety (2010, background): “Nonetheless, a systematic review published in 2004 was not able to show conclusively an added benefit from sophisticated surgical simulation.(21) As such, it is currently widely accepted that simulators serve as an adjunctive tool, not a replacement, for patient-based operative experience.”
• Comparative Effectiveness of Technology-Enhanced Simulation Versus Other Instructional Methods: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis (2012, unknown): “Patient/health care outcomes (3) 9 (10)”
