Effect of Emergency Scenario-Based Training Program on Knowledge, Self-confidence, and Competency of Elderly Caregiver Volunteers in a Rural Thai Community: A Quasi-Experimental Study.
Article in International journal of community based nursing and midwifery, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Background: Many older people with comorbidities encounter emergency or life-threatening situations, but the response is often neglected or delayed, resulting in increased morbidity and mortality rates. Community preparedness to reduce the impact of emergency crises on older people is essential. This study aimed to determine the effect of an emergency scenario-based training program (ESBTP) for elderly care on the knowledge, self-confidence, and competency of volunteer caregivers in a rural Thai community. Methods: The one-group pre-post-test, quasi-experimental study, was conducted with a non-randomized research sampling of 40 community healthcare volunteers in Vibhavadi district, Surat Thani, Thailand. The research was conducted between October and December 2021. The ESBTP was based on Bloom's learning theory. The research instrument was a three-part questionnaire measuring knowledge, self-confidence, and competency in geriatric life-threatening surveillance and emergency assistance (GLTSEA) at one, four, and eight weeks of training. Data were analyzed using Bonferroni statistics and repeated measures ANOVA through the software IBM SPSS version 28 with hypothesis testing at P<0.05. Results: The results revealed that at Week 1, Week 4, and Week 8, the volunteers attending the ESBTP demonstrated significantly higher GLTSEA competency (P<0.001). Otherwise, the participants were not significantly different in GLTSEA knowledge (P=0.068) and self-confidence (P= 0.052) after the training. Conclusions: Volunteers' competency increased after ESBTP, but there must be continuity in community training to develop the relevant knowledge, self-confidence, and skills for emergencies.
