Medical simulation, or more broadly, healthcare simulation, is a branch of simulation related to education and training in medical fields of various industries. Simulations can be held in the classroom, in situational environments, or in spaces built specifically for simulation practice. [ 1 ]
The Society for Simulation in Healthcare (SSH), formerly known as the Society for Medical Simulation is a non-profit organization founded in 2004 to advance the application of medical simulation in healthcare. [1] It serves as a resource for young professionals in their growth in medical education and administration. [2]
This study serves as an example of the shifting paradigm in the dynamics of the health care system from being heavily 'disease-oriented' to more 'human-centered'.

Universal precautions within the health-care environment are believed to be effective in decreasing the risk of HIV. [46] Intravenous drug use is an important risk factor and harm reduction strategies such as needle-exchange programmes and opioid substitution therapy appear effective in decreasing this risk.
The modelling of infectious diseases is a tool that has been used to study the mechanisms by which diseases spread, to predict the future course of an outbreak and to evaluate strategies to control an epidemic.
More than 20 million people living with HIV globally, including 550,000 children under 15, depend on daily services provided with support from the PEPFAR program. [21] These actions have led to widespread concern among global health experts and organizations about the future of HIV/AIDS programs and the potential reversal of progress made in ...
Artificial intelligence in healthcare is the application of artificial intelligence (AI) to analyze and understand complex medical and healthcare data. In some cases, it can exceed or augment human capabilities by providing better or faster ways to diagnose, treat, or prevent disease.
This is an important time for prevention, as acquiring HIV during pregnancy increases the risk of transmission to the infant. [6] Global oral PrEP accessibility for women, including those who are either pregnant or breastfeeding, is limited. In addition, there is minimal research on the effects of injectable PrEP and pregnancy outcomes. [21]
