Abstract

HHaving an important place in medical education in today's technology age, the practice of simulation has become an indispensable element of midwifery education. Simulation education today is widely applied in many cases such as in obstetrics as evaluation of cervical dilatation, amniocentesis, delivery, breech delivery and management of shoulder dystocia, umbilical cord prolapse, eclampsia, postpartum hemorrhage, first care of the newborn, and maternal cardiac arrest. The simulation application has become an important educational strategy which aims to reveal the health skills with a multidisciplinary approach by creating the real conditions of a situation without taking the possible risks to be encountered, and by providing the person with the experience of that situation in the virtual or artificial environment. The simulation application helps to increase the knowledge and skills of health professionals in the field of obstetrics in order to improve maternal and newborn health and reduce morbidity and mortality rates. The simulation application enables midwifery education to become more comprehensive, resulting in improved patient care and increased patient safety and supports the development of midwifery skills by facilitating students' learning abilities in the intersection of theory and practice. Contrary to traditional methods in education, the application of simulation enables midwifery students to graduate as individuals who act with the approach of a multidisciplinary team, and who are equipped, competent in their field have high self-confidence. The aim of this review is to examine the relevant literature and to reveal the role and importance of the use of simulation in midwifery education.
