Comparing reflection levels between facilitator-led and student-led debriefing in simulation training for paramedic students.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Simulation in healthcare attempts to create relevant representations of patient encounters. It provides experiential learning, bridging typical classroom activities and clinical practice. This study aims to investigate whether the principle of Peer-Assisted Learning can be used in simulation by letting simulation-experienced paramedic students prepare, deliver, and debrief their own simulations, with minimal faculty assistance. This could be a way to support student learning by being involved in teaching, and it might at the same time optimise the cost-effectiveness of simulation-based training.

Methods

This observational non-inferiority study compared reflection levels between facilitator-led and student-led simulation and debriefing, between scenario types, and
