Implementation of the resident exposure to nursing and administration curriculum.

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
objectivesClinical competence is an essential component of the practice of emergency medicine (EM), but a well-rounded physician must gain appreciation and understanding of the many nonclinical aspects of EM, including emergency department (ED) throughput, operational metrics, financial principles, policies and procedures, interaction with nursing, and patient experience. While most residency programs include an administrative component, the majority are during the final year of training. We designed and piloted the Resident Exposure To Nursing and Administration (RETNA) curriculum for postgraduate year one (PGY-1) residents during orientation. The curriculum included a lecture, departmental tour with operational focus, and nurse shadowing experience, which were completed prior to their first clinical shift. We hypothesized that residents would view this favorably and advocate for formal adoption of the RETNA curriculum. Furthermore, we anticipated that the curriculum would improve relationships between residents and nursing.
methodsThe three-component RETNA curriculum was piloted at an urban, academic center, with 14 PGY-1 residents per class, to two PGY-1 classes over a two-year period. Surveys were used to assess the resident perception of each component of the curriculum. Quantitative survey results were compared year over year using an unpaired
resultsThe overall survey response rate was 82%. There was no statistically significant difference between the responses recorded in 2019 versus 2020 (
conclusionThe overwhelmingly positive feedback we received on this curriculum has led to the adoption of the RETNA curriculum as a core component for future EM orientations at the study institution. Introducing trainees to ED administration and nursing early in residency has few drawbacks and many potential benefits. As such, we advocate for further study and adoption of similar curricula to enhance and supplement existing postgraduate EM resident education.
