Development and Implementation of a Curriculum for Pediatric Trainees on Caring for Children Who Are Deaf and Hard of Hearing: A Pilot Study.

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
introductionChildren who are deaf or hard of hearing (DHH) are at risk for poor developmental outcomes related to incomplete language access. Evidence based interventions are available to improve early access to language. With a better understanding of caring for DHH children, pediatricians will be more prepared to work with families in improving outcomes for this population. To date, there are no formal curricula on educating pediatric trainees on childhood hearing differences.
methodsThe authors designed a novel pilot curriculum to educate pediatric trainees on caring for DHH children, including screening, diagnosis, signed languages, and hearing technologies. The curriculum was delivered to pediatric interns in a 1-hour seminar. Pre-lecture, immediate post-lecture, and 6-month post-lecture surveys were developed and conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of the curriculum. Descriptive statistics were used to determine differences in understanding concepts before and after the curricular intervention.
resultsA total of 55 residents participated in the curriculum over a 14-month study period from 2018 to 2019. There were significant differences in responses between the pre- and post- surveys related to residents' understanding of childhood deafness and their confidence in their ability to care for DHH children.
conclusionPediatric trainees gained an understanding of the challenges faced by DHH children and of the interventions that aim to provide them with access to language during the critical period of development. As a result, trainees will be in a better position to care for patients and their families after a new diagnosis of a hearing difference and guide them through early language-based interventions.
