AB  - Simulation  is  the  imitation  or  representation  of  one  act  or  system  by  another.  According  to  the  Society  for  Simulation  in  Healthcare  (2015),  simulation  in  medicine  has  four  purposes  to  aid  patient  safety:  (1)  education,  (2)  assessment,  (3)  research,  and  (4)  health  system  integration.  During  the  past  few  years,  simulation  has  been  advanced  as  a  technique  to  improve  obstetric  training  and  thus  patient  safety.  Currently,  many  obstetric  surgical  techniques  are  decreasing  in  frequency,  and  this  stems  in  large  part  from  inadequate  training  due  to  declining  procedure  numbers.  Thus,  simulation  poses  a  solution  to  this  negative  cycle  by  providing  hands-on  practice.
