Using simulation to improve systems.

Kearney JA, Deutsch ES. Otolaryngol Clin North Am. 2017;50:1015-1028.

Simulations in health care can help uncover technical weaknesses, teamwork gaps, and system problems. This review explores simulation use in otolaryngology and outlines key components of in-situ simulation and how to perform one.
