At the ESAIC, we believe in hi-fidelity
Simulation Training
At the ESAIC, we believe hi-fidelity simulation training to be a valuable teaching tool for every stage in an anaesthetist’s career. Although an initial investment can be expensive, simulation more than makes up for the costs as it can develop a robust and safer practice that will save money in the long term.

Training
Every month, the ESAIC Trainee Network invites an expert to cover a topic with Anaesthesia and Intensive Care.
At the ESAIC, we believe hi-fidelity simulation training to be a valuable teaching tool for every stage in an anaesthetist’s career. Although an initial investment can be expensive, simulation more than makes up for the costs as it can develop a robust and safer practice that will save money in the long term.
Effective simulation requires so much more than a mannikin and space to practice. We advocate for professional simulation faculty who have a firm understanding of the educational principles, which are particular to developing practical training and the necessary debriefing skills. This way, we ensure that participants can make the best use of what they have learned so they can improve in their daily practice.

ESAIC Simulation Committee
The ESAIC Simulation Committee is active in building bridges, not only with other committees within the ESAIC but also between centres all over Europe. The committee is comprised of some of the most experienced simulation experts in Europe.
SimLab
Members of the Simulation Committee support the SimLab that takes place every year at Euroanaesthesia. Here delegates have a chance to sign up to take part in simulation scenarios using high-fidelity manikins and receive debriefing from experienced simulation faculty.
