Most used quantitative or mixed methods designs. SBE was characterized across six areas: Simulation activity, modality, facilitators, support structures, research methods and learning objectives. Emergency care training, particularly for the management of deteriorating patients and HALO scenarios, was most prevalent. Modalities included simulated patients, in\u00a0situ simulation, virtual simulation and procedural simulation. Technology\u2010enabling approaches, including telemedicine and mobile simulation units, were increasingly reported.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Discussion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Reporting quality was variable.
