Abstract

Emergency medicine is a relatively new field of practice in sub-Saharan Africa, and the first specialty training in Tanzania started in 2010. Despite this, the majority of emergency care for children is done by providers with little formal emergency medicine or pediatric emergency training. A low-fidelity, in situ simulation curriculum was held at Bugando Medical Center in Western Tanzania in 2018. There were 11 simulation cases that covered core topics in pediatric emergency care, and these were done on an ad hoc basis during available education time in a busy emergency department using available resources. These cases were well received and represent an opportunity for using external specialists to assist with provider education.

在坦桑尼亚姆万扎繁忙的急诊科进行儿科急诊现场模拟
急诊医学在撒哈拉以南非洲是一个相对较新的实践领域,坦桑尼亚的第一个专业培训始于2010年。尽管如此,大多数儿童急诊护理是由几乎没有正式急诊医学或儿科急诊培训的提供者完成的。2018年,在坦桑尼亚西部的布甘多医疗中心举办了一场低保真度的现场模拟课程。有11个模拟案例涵盖了儿科急诊护理的核心主题,这些案例是在繁忙的急诊科利用现有资源的可用教育时间内临时完成的。这些案例很受欢迎,为利用外部专家协助提供者教育提供了机会。
