1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundSimulation is a technique used to create an experience without going through the real event. Competency-based medical education focuses on outcomes and ensures professionals have the necessary knowledge, skills, and attitudes. The purpose of this study was to develop a set of competencies for the instructors providing basic and advanced levels of simulation-based training in healthcare.

methodsWe conducted a qualitative study in three steps, with each next step building on and influenced by the previous one. First, we conducted a literature review, then a consensus development panel, and finally a three-step Delphi process. The participants were experts in the fields of healthcare, education, and simulations.

resultsThe six main competencies identified for the instructor providing simulation-based training at the basic level in healthcare include knowledge of simulation training, education/training development, education/training performance, human factors, ethics in simulation, and assessment. An instructor providing simulation-based training at an advanced level in healthcare should also possess the following five competencies: policies and procedures, organisation and coordination, research, quality improvement, and crisis management.

conclusionThe identified competencies can serve as a valuable resource for simulation educators and organisations involved in simulation education, to plan curriculum and implement a continuous train-the-trainers programme.
