Integrating simulation into advanced pharmacy practice experience curriculum: An innovative approach to training.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundThe use of simulation-based education (SBE) in pharmacy education can help students acquire the essential clinical knowledge and skills for practice and can enhance patients' safety. Simulation-based training has been implemented in inter-professional education training, introductory pharmacy practice experiences, pharmacy residency training. Still, there is limited information in the literature that assesses the use of simulation in advanced pharmacy practice experience (APPE).
objectiveTo evaluate the impact of integrating SBE into APPE on students' learning outcomes, training costs, and satisfaction.
methodThis study presents a new training model of a 5-week clerkship experience where sixth-year pharmacy students alternate between hospital wards and simulation rooms. Student assessment rubrics were used to measure students' achievements and report faculty feedback. Students filled scenario evaluation forms to assess their simulation satisfaction rate.
resultsA total of 57 students completed a full block of simulation-based, followed by hospital-based blocks practicing in the same medical specialty in both blocks. This newly structured experience provided fourteen direct patient care training seats per rotation and saved around 25,000 Saudi Riyals per rotation. The mean grades in both simulation and hospital-based blocks were mostly above 90% in all learning outcomes. Cognitive skills and affect learning outcomes mean grades were higher in the simulation-based group-most of the students being satisfied with the simulation scenarios.
conclusionSBE integration into APPE can supplement hospital-based experiential training to achieve the best learning outcomes with improved students' satisfaction.
