Abstract

Bronchoscopy is a common procedure, with an estimated 500,000 bronchoscopies performed annually in the United States. It is mainly performed by pulmonologists, but surgeons, anesthesiologists, and intensivists also perform this procedure for a variety of diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. Acquisition and maintenance of bronchoscopy skills for both novice and advanced learners is an issue of high priority to ensure optimal delivery o health care and reduce errors and complications. Simulation presents a new option in the armamentarium of skill teaching and is positioned to play an essential role in the education of current and future physicians. In this chapter, I will review the current state of bronchoscopy training and the evolving role and data on simulation in bronchoscopy.
