The global medical simulation market is expected to reach USD1.450 billion by 2024 with a CAGR of 4.71 percent. Medical simulation is the process of simulating clinical scenarios for the training of healthcare professionals. Healthcare simulation is required for education, assessment, research, and health system integration in facilitating patient safety and act as a bridge between classroom learning and real-life clinical experience. It allows for the safe training of healthcare professionals engaging them in activities that would otherwise be too dangerous to practice. Healthcare simulation provides a safe and controlled environment that suits learner-centered approaches and reduces patient exposure to inexperienced trainees, thereby ensuring a better quality of care for the patients. The market is expected to show robust growth during the forecast period owing to the increased focus on patient safety. Technological advancements in the medical simulation techniques will also augment the growth of the market during the given forecast period. However, training and recruitment of the raters for high-stakes simulation-based assessment may restrict the growth of the medical simulation market.
