Continuing Education Certificate in Trauma Skills Among Emergency Nurses: A National Sample Survey Analysis.

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
backgroundTrauma population health indicators are worsening in the United States. Nurses working in trauma care settings require specialized training for patient care. Little is known about national enumeration of nurses who hold skill-based trauma certificates.
objectiveThe purpose of this project was to estimate (1) skill-based certificate status among U.S. nurses who primarily work with emergency or trauma patients, (2) demographic and work characteristic differences between those who report skill-based trauma certificates and those who do not, and (3) continuing education learning needs among nurses who hold skill-based trauma certificates.
methodsThis was an applied epidemiologic analysis of the 2022 National Sample Survey of Registered Nurses.
resultsThe weighted analysis of 239,893 emergency nurses indicated 57% held skill-based trauma certificates with disparities by rural practice, racial identity, age, and marital status. Among those who held skill-based trauma certificates, the greatest need for continuing education was on topics of mental health, quality improvement, and substance use disorders. Approximately 87% of emergency nurses with trauma skill-based certificates only spoke English fluently.
conclusionsPopulation health management interventions are needed to enhance workforce equity and continuing education opportunities for trauma nurses. Professional nursing organizations, emergency nursing employers, and academic settings should offer continuing education in mental health and quality improvement. These findings also support the need for ongoing activities to enhance language accessibility for non-English speaking patients in the trauma care system.
