Construction and psychometric validation in Spanish schoolchildren of a knowledge questionnaire on basic life support and Automated External Defibrillator (ConocES-BLS/AED) in Spain.

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
The 60 % of cardiac arrests happen in the out-of-hospital setting. In 2023, the International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation issued a statement entitled "Children save lives", recommending the teaching of basic life support to children from the age of 12. However, we have not identified validated instruments that assess the level of knowledge of schoolchildren about BLS and AED.
objectiveConstruction and psychometric validation of a questionnaire to assess knowledge on Basic Life Support (BLS) and Automated External Defibrillator (AED) in primary to secondary school children.
methodCross-sectional descriptive study of validation of the questionnaire consisting of several phases: construction of the questionnaire on knowledge on BLS and AED (ConocES-BLS/AED), content validation, pilot test and psychometric validation.
resultsThe ConocES-SVB/AED questionnaire was constructed, content validation was carried out by 14 experts, the pilot test carried out on 105 students reported good reliability (0.84), and finally with the psychometric validation a questionnaire composed of 12 items was obtained and psychometrically validated using the Item Response Theory in a final sample of 182 participants. Adequate fit values and acceptable reliability (0.65) were obtained, demonstrating its usefulness to accurately measure the level of knowledge about SVB/AED maneuvers in schoolchildren.
conclusionsThe created and validated questionnaire provides educators with a fundamental resource to identify areas of lack of knowledge, improve and design effective educational interventions for schoolchildren on SVB/AED maneuvers
