An investigation of the effectiveness of two different methods in teaching surgical aseptic skills: a quasi-experimental study.
Article in BMC surgery, 2025. 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
backgroundIt is of the utmost importance in the prevention of infections in surgery that nursing students should learn surgical aseptic skills fully and in the correct order. There is a need for innovative teaching strategies to ensure that the contents of students' skills education are the same and that instruction is similar. Therefore, this study was conducted to investigate the effectiveness of two different methods in teaching surgical aseptic skills.
methodsA quasi-experimental research design was used. A total of 67 students were included in the study, 35 in an intervention group (video-assisted teaching), and 32 in a control group (skill demonstration) were recruited in the nursing faculty of a university in Türkiye. In both groups, the level of aseptic skill knowledge, the level of psychomotor skill, and the satisfaction score were assessed.
resultsAlthough the students' surgical aseptic technique pre-test knowledge scores were higher in the control group, the post-test knowledge scores of both groups were high, and no significant difference was found between the groups. It was found that the gown and glove-wearing post-test scores of the students in the intervention group were higher than those of the control group. The students' sterile technique and surgical hand-washing skill levels were higher in the intervention group, and satisfaction with the teaching method was higher in the control group.
conclusionsThe conclusions of this study show that the results of interactive video teaching in teaching nursing skills are as good as the traditional face to face demonstration method. This is a positive indicator, suggesting that interactive videos can suitably be integrated into basic nursing skills training.
