ABSTRACT

Simulation based research has seen exponential growth in recent years, but the quality of such articles needs improvement. To achieve that goal, structured planning of simulation based research protocols is key. First, one must establish an adequate clinical question and justify the reasons for researching the subject. Afterwards, significant outcomes must be selected in order to start designing the protocol itself. Once the research has been conducted, an article must be written that considers general structure determined by scientific literature standards. It includes title, abstract, key words, introduction, materials and methods, results, discussion, conclusions, acknowledgements, references and supplementary data. The language to be used is also to be considered, since it has to be correct, brief and precise. The purpose of this paper is to be used as a guideline to ease the process of designing and writing a simulation based research protocol.
