摘要

Although simulation-based education is well known to support skill development such as Advanced Cardiovascular Life Support skills, it is not well incorporated in the Canadian junior undergraduate medical education curriculum. Medical students at the University of Toronto in collaboration with the local Base Hospital created ResusWars, a simulation-based education initiative. The aim of ResusWars is to introduce Advanced Cardiovascular Life Support theory and increase early access to simulation-based education for junior medical students. Pre- and post-event surveys showed that participants felt more confident managing time-sensitive scenarios and were more comfortable with simulation following participation in ResusWars.
