Simulation-based learning, specifically peer-led models, may offer a promising approach to enhance the educational experience for pathophysiology students. Participants in this pilot study were undergraduate students who were enrolled in a pathophysiology course at a single institution who completed a 1-hour peer-led simulation-based workshop. The National League for Nursing’s Student Satisfaction and Self-Confidence in Learning Scale (0-5 with higher score representing a more positive response) was administered to evaluate students’ perception of the peer-led simulation experience. Analysis of survey responses demonstrated that peer-led simulation was positively received by students with a mean (standard deviation) score for satisfaction with current learning of 4.68 (0.47) and for self-confidence in learning of 4.54 (0.47) . High levels of satisfaction and self-confidence with were reported for this method of instruction with >90% of respondents stating “agree” or “strongly agree”. Findings of this study suggest that peer-led simulation is an effective strategy to promote student satisfaction and self-confidence with pathophysiology coursework. Future studies should evaluate whether the implementation of peer-led simulation experiences within the pathophysiology curriculum enhances knowledge and academic success.

Specifically, high-fidelity simulation provides enhanced realism and interactivity while in a controlled environment for learners (Meakim et al., 2013). These immersive experiences are intended to bridge the gap from theoretical learning to clinical practice. Learning models featuring high-fidelity simulation, defined by a realistic representation of a healthcare environment using computerized patient simulators, promote a deeper level of analytical reasoning, self-efficacy and motivation (Hanshaw & Dickerson, 2020) . In undergraduate nursing education programs, high-fidelity simulation has been demonstrated to enhance knowledge acquisition and improve student performance (Vangone et al., 2024) . However, data on the potential to enhance the learning experience in prerequisite courses, such as pathophysiology, are limited. Providing exposure to simulation in the pathophysiology  \ncurriculum offers experiential learning opportunities within a realistic clinical environment in order to improve competencybased learning outcomes.  \nDeveloping and implementing a simulation-based curriculum for pathophysiology may further benefit from a peer-led instructional model. Specifically, peer-led learning offers academic and social benefits that may promote engagement and improve critical thinking in undergraduate students ([Choi et. al](Choi et. al)., 2021).
