ConclusionConclusion
Significant variability of equipment and Significant variability of equipment and training practices exist in currently available training practices exist in currently available labs. Strategies are needed for more labs. Strategies are needed for more widespread implementation of skills labs, and widespread implementation of skills labs, and standards should be developed to facilitate standards should be developed to facilitate uniform adoption of validated curricula that uniform adoption of validated curricula that reliably maximize training efficiency and reliably maximize training efficiency and educational benefit. educational benefit.
