Simulation medicine in obstetrics and gynaecology, possibilities for its use and the current state at the obstetrics and gynaecology departments in the Czech Republic.

Our finding is that large obstetrics and gynaecology departments in the Czech Republic are well equipped, have good teaching environments available to them, and are able to use most of the current simulation teaching methods. On the other hand, except for an operative vaginal birth course, only a small number of other simulation courses are currently being offered. Data from the survey are further used to discuss the possibilities of developing simulation training in this field in the Czech Republic.
