Process of medical simulator development: An approach based on personal experience.

With increasing demand for simulators from the healthcare community and increasingly sophisticated technology being used in the manufacture of medical simulators, the manufacture of healthcare simulators has become a multifaceted undertaking. Based on our experience in the field and our diverse backgrounds, we explore the processes and issues related to the development of these simulators and suggest ways for the developing teams to collaborate and coordinate with each other to achieve a successful outcome.
