Purpose

The purpose of this debriefing is to re-examine the experience completing the Week 3 iHuman Cardiovascular Assessment assignment while engaging in dialogue with faculty and peers. In the debriefings, students:

• Reflect on the simulation activity
• Share what went well and consider alternative actions
• Engage in meaningful dialogue with classmates
• Express opinions clearly and logically, in a professional manner

Course Outcomes

This debriefing enables the student to meet the following course outcomes:

• CO 2: Differentiate between normal and abnormal health assessment findings. (PO 4)

Debriefing

Use the following format to reflect on the Week 3 iHuman Cardiovascular assignment. This was the Michael Granger case.

• Paragraph One: What went well for you in the simulation? Provide examples of when you felt knowledgeable and confident in your skills. Do you feel the scenario was realistic? Why or why not?
• Paragraph Two: What would you do differently next time? Describe at least one

area you identified where improvements could be made. Were you surprised by any of the feedback you were provided by iHuman? If yes, please explain.

• Paragraph Three: What did you learn from this simulation? Or, what did this

simulation reinforce that you found valuable? Do you have any questions related to the scenario?
