A high level of communication and excellent cooperation skills are also necessary when interacting with labouring women [1,3,5-7]. Simulation-based medical education is a complex in- tervention and despite the growing number of studies, knowledge gaps still exist and many key elements of simulation-based training remain to be analysed in depth to improve the field. This thesis addresses how various aspects of obstetric simulation- based medical education interfere and impact outcomes. What is simulation? Simulation-based medical education can be broadly and simply defined: ‘‘... a person, device, or set of conditions which attempts to present education and evaluation prob- lems authentically. The student or trainee is required to respond to the problems as he or she would under natural circumstances” [8]. Simulation technologies can, for in- stance comprise products such as high-tech virtual reality simulators, full-scale manne- quins, plastic models, instructed patients, animals, animal products and human cadav- ers. The key advantages of simulation-based medical education include avoidance of pa- tient risks, the needs of the participants and team determine the training agenda, the environment is safe and failing is permissible. Tasks and scenarios can be created ac- cording to demand, training can be tailored to individuals or teams and skills can be practised repeatedly. In addition, learning can focus on a particular team, on the whole procedure or on specific components of a procedure [8-14]. The literature highlights specific principles in simulation-based team training, including critical aspects such as identifying teamwork skills to focus training content, allowing the desired team-based learning outcomes and organisational resources to guide the process, and ensuring the relevance of training to the transfer environment [10,15,16]. In addition applying feedback, assessing learning and behaviours on the job and doing evaluations based on clinical outcomes are also important [15,16]. Multi-proFessional and multi-disciplinary obstetric simulation This thesis focuses specifically on simulation-based medical education in obstetric emergencies, e.g. clinical management of shoulder dystocia, severe postpartum bleed- ing, severe preeclampsia, neonatal resuscitation and emergency caesarean section. Labour wards are challenging workplaces where patient safety and medical litigation are high on the agenda [17]. In emergency situations, managing labouring women may 10 INTRODUCTION require the involvement of several healthcare professional groups. The primary care team in the delivery room consists of a midwife and an auxiliary nurse. In the event of an obstetric emergency more experienced midwives and obstetricians are called upon. As an obstetric emergency unfolds, involvement of an anaesthesiologist, a nurse anaes- thetist, operating room nurses and a neonatologist may become necessary. When the parturient woman is severely ill, involvement of both medical and surgical specialists may be required to deal with an ordinary situation that has become potentially life threatening and calls for multi-professional and multi-disciplinary clinical management (figure 1.1). Teams created for specific clinical situations are known as ad hoc on-call teams [18,19].

The three columns represent the physical space (delivery ward, operation theatre, postnatal ward) where communication and handover between various healthcare professionals are necessary. The circles and ovals represent the individual healthcare professionals involved in care of the patient and illustrate how some staff works solely on a specific ward while others work across wards.
