Abstract

Over the years, the advancement of technology has enabled the commercialisation of ever more sophisticated and realistic training tools which can play a very important role in the acquisition of cognitive and practical skills. Early simulation developments started with cardiopulmonary resuscitation using the Laerdal Resusci-Ann mannequins (Lind, 1961) and the first full-scale patient simulators in the 1960s (Abrahamson & Wallace 1980). Although valuable a training tool, sophisticated mannequins come at a price that is not affordable by all institutions; however there are often ways of overcoming such obstacles
