Abstract
Background: This study investigates the value of integrating medical simulation as an educational tool for biology residents, addressing the critical need for safe, comprehensive training for medical practitioners, particularly in acquiring technical and non-technical skills for rare and complex medical procedures. A retrospective analytical study was conducted across two workshops for medical biology residents at the Faculty of Medicine' Simulation center in Tangier. Method: The methodology employed a structured training approach: initial pre-debriefing with pre-tests, a theoretical briefing utilizing the MEDCARE method, a hybrid simulation incorporating procedural and audiovisual components, dedicated debriefing sessions, and subsequent post-training evaluations. Results: The results showed a significant improvement in both theoretical and practical knowledge, with the average correct answer rate increasing from 65.20% before the training to 93.75% afterward. Participants became better at diagnosing, recognizing anomalies, and making decisions. The training achieved "High Fidelity Simulation" according to Alinier's model, and all participants were satisfied
