ABSTRACT

Introduction: clinical simulation is a useful tool for teaching and developing medical skills in health science students. To ensure an effective impact on medical education, it is important to carry out maintenance and cleaning activities on clinical simulation equipment. However, the available information regarding these activities is limited. Objective: to provide a current overview of preventive maintenance and cleaning practices for clinical simulation equipment. Material and methods: information on cleaning and maintenance practices was gathered through the review of scientific articles and digital resources from websites related to maintenance and cleaning activities. Results: recommendations from manufacturers and users were obtained, with scientific evidence on the materials commonly used for these activities. Conclusions: this study presents a general overview of cleaning and maintenance practices for clinical simulators and highlights the importance of documenting current and future techniques to ensure the functionality and integrity of this equipment.
