At Samarkand State Medical University (formerly institute), in 2004, simulation-based training rooms were established on the 3rd floor of the university’s main building, in the departments of "Pediatric Surgery" and "1st Obstetrics and Gynecology." The purpose was to manage the medical education process using a systematic approach and to introduce modern simulation-based educational technologies into medical training—essentially, to develop and elevate simulation-based medical education to a higher quality level.
To broadly implement simulation-based teaching in the medical education system and to ensure the acquisition of practical skills using simulation technologies—such as phantoms, models, mannequins, and simulator robots—simulation rooms were equipped with more than 100 models, mannequins, phantoms, simulators, and medical instruments and equipment.
In these simulation rooms, specialists conducted training sessions with students using the latest stages of simulation technologies in medicine, focusing particularly on the development of practical skills in an optimal format.
Simulation-based training aimed at practical application has been playing an essential role in helping students perform complex professional tasks in their future careers, understand clinical situations, think clinically, and develop practical skills.
