The PEARLS Healthcare Debriefing Tool

So many roads: facilitated debriefing in healthcare.

The article by Rudolph and colleagues1 addresses a subject that is important to many involved in simulation in healthcare, but is not a traditional part of the training or experience of healthcare personnel. The topic is “facilitated debriefing,” but what exactly is this and why should we care? A little background may help explain. In the 1970s, several airliners piloted by highly skilled pilot...

The impact of a high fidelity simulation-based debriefing course on the Debriefing Assessment for Simulation in Healthcare (DASH)© score of novice instructors

Introduction: Experiential learning, followed by debriefing, isat the heart of Simulation-Based Medical Education (SBME) andhas been proven effective to help master several medical skills.We investigated the impact of an educational intervention, basedon high-fidelity SBME, on the debriefing competence of novicesimulation instructors.Methods: This is a prospe...

Promoting Excellence and Reflective Learning in Simulation (PEARLS): development and rationale for a blended approach to health care simulation debriefing.

STATEMENT We describe an integrated conceptual framework for a blended approach to debriefing called PEARLS [Promoting Excellence And Reflective Learning in Simulation]. We provide a rationale for scripted debriefing and introduce a PEARLS debriefing tool designed to facilitate implementation of the new framework. The PEARLS framework integrates 3 common educational strategies used during debri...
