Evaluating pre-anesthesia assessment performance in residency: the reliability of standardized patient methods.

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
Background: Pre-anesthesia assessment clinic (PAC) is known to increase safety and quality in the perioperative period. However, PAC teaching during anesthesiology residency is a challenge. The objective of this study was to assess the reliability of a simulation score grid using a standardized patient on the PAC performance of anesthesiology residents. Methods: A score grid, including the 4 components of the PAC (clinical evaluation, perioperative strategy, information and communication) was validated by a group of 5 senior anesthesiologists. Anesthesiology residents (> one year) and attending anesthesiologists were included. The same simulation sequence with the same standardized patient was conducted in a simulation dedicated consultation room. The simulation sequence was followed by a debriefing session with the 2 professors (anesthesiology and communication) and each anesthesiology resident. The main outcome was the overall grid score out of a maximum score of 300 and the correlation of this score with experience in anesthesiology residency. Secondary outcomes were individual component scores according to level of experience in anesthesiology. Results: Between October 2014 and April 2016, 109 anesthesiology residents and 16 attending anesthesiologists were included in this prospective bicentric study. There was a positive correlation ( Conclusion: Standardized patient Simulation of PAC seems to be a reliable tool to assess PAC performance in anesthesiology residents and senior anesthesiologists. These results suggest standardized patient simulation could be used as a teaching tool for PAC.
