ERASE: A structured debriefing model.
Abstract
The ERASE model is a structured debriefing model developed in Spanish to support its implementation by Spanish-speaking instructors. It integrates essential elements from established models such as PEARLS, 3D, iTRUST, and GAS, organizing post-simulation reflection into five sequential phases: Emotions, Recap, Actions, Suggestions, and Endpoints. Each phase aligns functionally with corresponding components from these prior models, promoting emotional processing, critical analysis, and the synthesis of key lessons. Its clear, stepwise structure facilitates the consolidation of learning and encourages practical improvements in clinical performance.
