Research and training in midwifery by means of an interactive delivery simulator

: This article is a reflective starting point within the framework of research on interactive delivery simulators. The objective is to open the perspective within our field to a set of concepts that allow us to create a base of reflection toward the goal of developing a theoretical framework with which to analyse and conceptualize activities with a delivery Simulator. The simulator SIMone is proposed as a means of analysis through general economic and philosophic approaches, by connecting simulation, teaching, the notion of instrument and technique.
