Case Cards: A Novel Learner-Centered Initiative to Improve Resident Education in the Pediatric Emergency Room.

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
introductionThe pediatric emergency department (PED) provides a wealth of learning opportunities for residents. However, delivering dedicated education can be a significant challenge due to considerable variability in day-to-day schedules, volume, cases, time, and resource availability. Case-based and learner-centered teaching models are well suited for ambulatory settings like the emergency department. Using the Kern model, we designed an educational intervention titled "Case Cards" to facilitate active learning conversations in pediatric emergency medicine (PEM). Our goal was to improve clinical teaching in the PED to demonstrate self-reported satisfaction, knowledge acquisition, confidence, and commitment among residents rotating in this fast-paced, challenging clinical environment.
methodsAfter general and targeted needs assessments, we developed a compendium of 30 high-yield case cards to facilitate case-based learning conversations between learners and preceptors. Case topics mirror the American Board of Pediatrics Content Outline of Emergent Conditions. The "Learner Card" presents a PEM case for the learner to read and hold, while the "Teacher Card" contains evidence-based teaching prompts following established learner-centered clinical teaching models to guide and facilitate the case. Post-implementation surveys queried Kirkpatrick New World educational outcomes in a retrospective format.
resultsWe collected data from 24 pediatric and emergency medicine residents between July 2021 and January 2022. All respondents agreed or strongly agreed that case cards are enjoyable, educational, applicable to clinical practice, enhanced confidence, and would be recommended to others.
conclusionCase cards for learner-centered teaching in the pediatric emergency setting are well-received and demonstrate resident self-reported satisfaction, knowledge, and confidence in core PEM conditions. Having established and readily available teaching topics, such as case cards, can enhance the clinical experience in the PED and other challenging settings and augment clinical exposure to core content. Educators may wish to expand and explore evolving technologies to facilitate learner-centered clinical teaching.
