Background: Simulation based training continues to be a growing element of healthcare education. Simulation training allows student registered nurse anesthetists (SRNAs) to practice critical skills in a low stress environment. Implementing simulation education with an evidence-based framework can improve educational outcomes. Simulation debriefing has been proven to be a key component of simulation education. The Promoting Excellence and Reflective Learning in Simulation (PEARLS) model can be used as a framework to implement a formal debriefing component to simulation training. Purpose: The purpose of this project was to add the PEARLS debriefing model to the current rapid sequence induction (RSI) simulation at Marian University, and determine if this addition improved knowledge, confidence, and satisfaction of first year SRNAs. Methods: This project utilized a quality improvement design. Quantitative data was collected using the 13-question National League for Nursing (NLN) Survey and a 5-question knowledge assessment. Data was analyzed using JASP (Jeffrey’s Amazing Statistics Program) to determine if statistical significance occurred between the control and experimental group. Implementation Plan/Procedure: The project took place at the Marian University Evans Center Simulation Laboratory. Twenty-four first year SRNAs were randomly divided into a control group, which received current simulation education, and an experimental group, which received current simulation education with the addition of the PEARLS debriefing model. Implications/Conclusion: The implementation of the PEARLS debriefing model improved student confidence scores on the NLN Survey. Students who completed simulation training with a debriefing component rated higher self-confidence scores than students who did not receive a debriefing component (p = 0.005). A formal debriefing component should be added to the rapid sequence induction simulation training at Marian University.
