'I Feel Disempowered Because I Could Not Do Anything': Clinical Facilitators' Perception of Violence Towards Nursing Students During Clinical Placement.
Article in Nursing open, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
aimsTo explore clinical facilitators' understanding, experiences and perceptions of their role in supporting registered nurse students (RNS) who experience workplace violence (WPV) during clinical placement.
designAn exploratory, qualitative design. METHODS AND DATA SOURCE: Data were collected between September and November 2022 using semi-structured interviews of 1-h duration with 11 clinical facilitators working in South Australia. The interviews were transcribed verbatim and analysed using thematic analysis.
resultsParticipants reported that WPV is experienced in many forms, including verbal and physical violence towards RNS during clinical placements. Clinical facilitators are not always aware of this experience and have mixed abilities to resolve the damage. Most importantly, clinical facilitators saw themselves as disempowered to provide the support required by RNS after WPV incidents as they perceived themselves as visitors to the facilities.
conclusionFindings indicate that a clinical facilitator's scope and ability to support a RNS is often not at a level where real impact and safety can occur. Varying perceptions of what WPV is, what is acceptable, and the authority or influence of a clinical facilitator have all informed this issue and need to be considered in developing strategies to address WPV towards RNS. IMPLICATIONS FOR THE NURSING PROFESSION: This study highlights that by understanding the causation of WPV and recognising the lack of influence and scope of clinical facilitators to act to support RNS during WPV events, positive industry changes can be instigated to promote student placement experiences and healthcare provision. IMPACT: Clinical facilitators felt limited in their role to support RNS experiencing WPV. This research impacts future nursing students, education providers, clinical facilitators and clinical placement providers. REPORTING
methodCOREQ guidelines were utilised to report qualitative research. NO PATIENT OR PUBLIC CONTRIBUTION: This paper explores specifically the clinical facilitators' perceptions of WPV.
