AbstractTraining in the management of pediatric airway cases has been limited by the number of cases and by the involved risks to the child. Simulation is an alternative and accessible means to practice that complex psychomotor task in a safe and reproducible environment. A high-fidelity baby mannequin provides an acceptable airway anatomic resemblance combined with measurable respiratory and cardiovascular parameters, allowing practice to be interactive and challenging. The availability of simulation laboratories within hospitals and the development of pathology-inspired accessories for the mannequins will determine the rate of adherence of ENT departments to this evolving field of simulation-based education.Copyright © 2013 Elsevier Inc.
