Effect of a positive pressure ventilation-refresher program on ventilation skill performance during simulated newborn resuscitation.

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
aimClinical staff highly proficient in neonatal resuscitation are essential to ensure prompt, effective positive pressure ventilation (PPV) for infants that do not breathe spontaneously after birth. However, it is well-documented that resuscitation competency is transient after standard training. We hypothesized that brief, repeated PPV psychomotor skill refresher training would improve PPV performance for newborn care nurses.
methodsSubjects completed a blinded baseline and post PPV-skills assessment. Data on volume and rate for each ventilation was recorded. After baseline assessment, subjects completed PPV-Refreshers over 3 months consisting of psychomotor skill training using a newborn manikin with visual feedback. Subjects provided PPV until they could deliver ≥30 s of PPV meeting targets for volume (10-21 mL) and rate (40-60 ventilations per minute [vpm]). Baseline and post assessments were compared for
resultsTwenty-six subjects were enrolled and completed a baseline assessment; 24 (92%) completed a post-assessment; 2 (8%) were lost to follow-up. Over 3 months, a mean 3.2 (range 1-6) PPV-Refreshers/subject were completed. Compared to baseline, subjects demonstrated significant improvement for
conclusionsA PPV-Refresher program with brief, repeated psychomotor skill practice significantly improved PPV performance with the greatest improvement in
