Abstract
We herein review the association between patients safety and simulation methods for medical education. This evidence should help to change the present paradigm in medical education, where there is still reticence towards this education method. A total of 20 papers on the subject were reviewed. Ninety percent of these articles conclude that simulation contributes to patient safety, 5% conclude that the evidence is uncertain and 5% conclude that the effects will be seen in the next decade. Thus, the majority of papers support the use of simulation in medical education as a method that improves patients safety.

Summary
ACirujano Dentista. bEnfermera Matrona. cAlumnas Magíster en Docencia en Ciencias de la Salud, Universidad Finis Terrae. We review the association between patients’ safety and simulation methods for medical education. Las investigaciones sobre eventos adversos (EA) han puesto de manifiesto la necesidad de mejorar la seguridad del paciente durante la atención sanitaria. Y por último los simuladores de paciente completo, que son maniquíes de tamaño real y de Simulación en educación médica - P. La educación médica basada en simulación ha demostrado ser eficaz en la trasferencia de conocimientos y habilidades que deben adquirir los profesionales de la salud de una manera segura y orientada hacia la educación[1,4]. Existe reticencia por el uso de esta metodología de enseñanza-aprendizaje en el contexto de los aportes para la seguridad del paciente. Utilizando los métodos y criterios de inclusión citados, fue posible construir la Tabla 1
