The reason for this rapid rise was to minimize preventable medical errors, which result in more than 400,000 deaths every year in the U.S. The cause of these fatalities can be traced back to the lack of effective coordination, perceptive thinking, and skill-based actions of healthcare professionals. This is where simulation technology comes forth as a viable solution to tackle the issue. Healthcare simulators, create a fully immersive medical scenario for a learner or practitioner. From manikins to artificial tissue models, a number of robust simulation tools are redefining the way of medical education industry is treading ahead. Manikins are replicating real-life patient scenarios including imitating human physiology and producing voice-based responses, paving the way for several innovative outcomes. Furthermore, the advent of artificial tissue models that are capable of deformation is offering immense credibility as they provide a precise view of a human's anatomy. Highlighting new developments in the simulation space, this special edition of MedTech Outlook brings innovative solutions in the field. The companies mentioned in the edition provide quality simulation software that can be tailored to the specific needs of your healthcare organizations.We hope the valuable insights from industry thought-leaders and the innovative solutions from leading as well as emerging companies featured in this edition will help you in making informed decisions for your healthcare simulation endeavors.Let us know your thoughts!Simulation: The Future of Healthcare EducationSarah FernandesEDITORIAL
