Self-efficacy and application of skills in the workplace after multidisciplinary trauma masterclass participation: a mixed methods survey and interview study.
Article in European journal of trauma and emergency surgery : official publication of the European Trauma Society, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
purposeThe most complex injuries are usually least often encountered by trauma team members, limiting learning opportunities at work. Identifying teaching formats that enhance trauma skills can guide future curricula. This study evaluates self-assessed technical and nontechnical trauma skills and their integration into novel work situations for multidisciplinary trauma masterclass participants.
methodsThis mixed methods study included participants of a multidisciplinary 3-day trauma masterclass. Ratings of trauma skills were collected through pre- and postcourse questionnaires with 1-year follow-up. Qualitative semi-structured interviews 9 months postcourse focused on the course format and self-perceived association with technical and nontechnical skills applied at work.
resultsResponse rates of pre- and postcourse questionnaires after 1 day, 3 months, and 1 year were respectively 72% (51/71), 85% (60/71), 34% (24/71), and 14% (10/71). Respondents were surgeons (58%), anesthesiologists (31%), and scrub nurses (11%). Self-efficacy in nontechnical (mean 3.4, SD 0.6 vs. mean 3.8, SD 0.5) and technical (mean 2.9, SD 0.6 vs. mean 3.6, SD 0.6) skills significantly increased postcourse (n = 40, p < 0.001). Qualitative interviews (n = 11) demonstrated that increased self-efficacy in trauma skills was the greatest benefit experienced at work. Innovative application of skills and enhanced reflection demonstrate adaptive expertise. Small-group case discussions and the operative porcine laboratory were considered the most educational working formats. The experienced faculty and unique focus on multidisciplinary teamwork were highly valued.
conclusionCourse participants' self-assessed work performance mostly benefited from greater self-efficacy and nontechnical skills. Future trauma curricula should consider aligning the teaching strategies accordingly.
