1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundInterprofessional education (IPE) is a curricular requirement for all healthcare professional education standards. To foster learning about, from and with each other, consistent with the Interprofessional Education Consortium's Core Competencies, many graduate schools are integrating interprofessional (IP) simulation experiences throughout their educational curricula, providing multiple opportunities for health professional students to collaborate and practice together. High-fidelity, real-time simulations help students from diverse professional backgrounds to apply their classroom learning in realistic clinical situations, utilize mobile technology to access clinical decision support (CDS) software, and receive feedback in a safe setting, ensuring they are practice-ready upon graduation.

methodsNew York University Rory Meyers College of Nursing (NYU) and Long Island University College of Pharmacy (LIU) partnered for two consecutive years to create, coordinate and implement two interprofessional educational simulations involving patients with chronic cardiovascular disease. A utilization-focused evaluation of high-fidelity, simulation-enhanced IPE (Sim-IPE) was implemented to assess students' IP competencies before and after their participation in the IPE-simulation and their overall satisfaction with the experience. The Interprofessional Collaborative Competency Attainment Survey (ICCAS), a reliable instrument, was administered to both doctor of pharmacy students and primary care advanced practice nursing students before and after each simulation experience. Additionally, student satisfaction surveys were administered following the IPE-simulation.

resultsAggregated means revealed statistically significant improvements in each of the six domains including communication, collaboration, roles and responsibilities, collaborative patient/family approach, conflict resolution and team functioning. Student ratings revealed positive experiences with the IPE-simulations.

conclusionsHigh-fidelity, real-time IPE-simulation is a powerful pedagogy to help graduate students from different professional backgrounds practice applying IP competencies in simulated experiences. Quality improvement studies and research studies are needed to assess the impact of high-fidelity, real-time simulations throughout graduate curricula with different types of patients to improve coordinated, team approaches to treatment.
