Impact of an Observation Medicine Educational Intervention on Residents' Confidence, Knowledge, and Attitudes: A Quasi-Experimental 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
objectivesDriven by innovations in healthcare, observation medicine (OM) is expanding as a medical specialty. Despite exponential growth, education on OM remains underemphasized in the internal medicine (IM) residency programs. We assessed the impact of an educational intervention pairing didactic and experiential learning with an interdepartmental approach on IM residents' confidence, knowledge, and attitudes when providing observation care to patients with neuro-cardiovascular diseases in the hospital setting.
methodsOur multifaceted intervention incorporated OM's principles and practice in a flipped classroom with the team-, case-, lecture- and evidence-based learning model. Kirkpatrick's evaluation model was used to assess the educational intervention's effectiveness according to the first three levels, ie, reaction, learning, and behavior, using quantitative surveys. The surveys were completed pre-intervention, and immediately upon completion of the educational intervention.
resultsOf 55 eligible residents, 55 (100%) participated in this intervention. Fifty (90%) completed the pre-intervention survey, and 21 (38%) completed the immediate post-intervention survey. Kirkpatrick's evaluation framework showed that the intervention had a positive impact on residents' motivational reaction (
conclusionsOur multimodal intervention provides a framework for a structured OM educational experience that can be incorporated into residency training, even without a formal observation unit rotation. The analysis also offers literary data on the current state of OM education in an IM residency program and supports the need to expand OM's educational resources to counteract the growth in hospital observation services. Future research should include an analysis of residents' knowledge and skills from a longitudinal OM experience and advancing the results to residency programs where observation care is as applicable as ours.
