ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: The debriefing phase is the simulation phase where performance improves and learning occurs. This study examined the effects of the learning conversation (LC)-based, 3D (defusing, discovering and deepening) model-based and unstructured debriefing methods on satisfaction and debriefing experience after in-situ simulation among intensive care unit (ICU) nurses.

METHODS: In this randomized controlled experimental study, three debriefing methods were compared, according to which 119 ICU nurses were divided into the following groups: LC group (n = 38), 3D group (n = 40) and control group (n = 41). In- situ simulation was performed with an intensive care patient scenario. p < .05 was considered statistically significant.

RESULTS: The total Debriefing Experience Scale-Experience with Debriefing part scores were 89.76 ± 8.10 in the LC group, 88.90 ± 8.70 in the 3D group and 88.29 ± 7.28 in the control group. No significant difference was found in debriefing experience and satisfaction between the groups (p > .05), but a significant difference was observed in the LC group. The groups showed a homogeneous distribution regarding participant characteristics.

CONCLUSION: Debriefing experience and satisfaction do not differ between the methods.

RELEVANCE TO CLINICAL PRACTICE: Implementation of the simulation in the ICU in – situ with ICU nurses is beneficial in obtaining a fidelity experience. Performing the debriefing application after simulation in line with the model supports the International Nursing Association for Clinical Simulation and Learning (INACSL) debriefing standards.
