Simulation Scenarios

AORN has developed scenarios of high-priority topics with the goal of promoting and facilitating clinical learning through multidisciplinary simulation.

Each scenario includes:

• Overview of the situation involved
• Learning objectives for the simulation
• Information for participant preparation and set-up
• A sequence of simulated events with skills checklist
• Algorithm of actions to be taken during the event
• Debriefing questions and actions
• Additional resources specific to each scenario (pictures, test answers, etc)

Simulation Scenarios:

• Active Shooter within the Perioperative Environment
• Anaphylaxis and Anaphylactic Shock
• Blood Reaction Management
• Create Your Own Simulation Scenario
• Difficult Airway
• Difficult Airway: Pediatric Patient
• Fire in the Operating Room
• Hemorrhage
• Hospital Transfer/Admission
• Intraoperative Robotics System Failure
• Local Anesthetic Systemic Toxicity (LAST)
• Malignant Hyperthermia
• Postpartum Hemorrhage Crisis
• Retained Surgical Item (RSI) Retrieval
• Venous Air Embolism
• VT/VF Cardiac Arrest with Patient in Prone Position
