Abstract

The objective of this study is to systematically evaluate peer-reviewed literature and analyze the current research on the thematic area “Simulation-Based Approaches to Enhance Operational Decision-Support in Healthcare 5.0” using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses. This systematic review was conducted in compliance with the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses) statement and implemented with the aid of the StArt software. Appropriate keywords were used in a search of the Science Direct, SCOPUS, and Web of Science databases. A total of 357 papers were retrieved from the databases and evaluated automatically. Eventually, 79 papers were analyzed according to their title, keywords and abstract. After the full-text analysis, 33 papers successfully met the inclusion criteria in the study. The review showed that healthcare providers and decision-makers can be guided by applying the Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) obtained from the simulation-based platforms to ensure quality and resilient health system.
