Abstract
Several studies have demonstrated the benefits of simulation-based education (SBE) across all trainee levels in various medical fields. These benefits include allowing trainees greater autonomy and the opportunity to learn from mistakes in bioethical and procedural scenarios without compromising patient safety. While much progress has been made, there is little research on the implementation of SBE in pain medicine. This study investigated the effects of interventional pain SBE on 37 pain medicine fellows at the Brigham and Women's Hospital Pain Medicine Fellowship. The study found that fellows' performance, knowledge, and comfort were enhanced by the implementation of this curriculum.
