Information Technology in Nursing Practice: A Scoping Review of Assessment Tools for Evaluating Nurses' Competencies.
Review in Journal of healthcare leadership, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
Introduction: The ongoing evolution of Health Information Technology has provided professionals with major challenges in maintaining the safety and quality of care provided to patients, especially when it comes to hyper-technological environments in hospital. This has driven the need to develop specific competencies and maintain a balance between ethical aspects, social and legal challenges related to privacy and data security, as well as the challenge of ensuring person-centered care practice. Then it will be important to understand what competences nurses are developing, based on what models and what instruments exist to assess them. Purpose: Identify and map information technologies and measurement instruments used to assess nurses' competencies in technological environments in hospital. Methods: A scoping review was carried out using the methodology presented by The Joanna Briggs Institute. Results: Of the 101 articles extracted, 4 articles were selected where 5 instruments were identified that evaluate: (1) Informatics Competency in Nursing Leaders; (2) Technological Competence as Nursing Care - Perception and Practice dimension; (3) Self-Assessment of Nursing Informatics Skills; (4) Clinical Decision Making in Nursing, and (5) Self-Assessment Questionnaire that Assesses Nurses' Informatics Skills, for nursing informatics. Conclusion: The development and enhancement of technological skills in nursing care provide an innovative and crucial perspective for managing and organizing healthcare delivery. This perspective is of great importance, reinforced by the reality in which nurses find themselves, with highly technological nursing practice environments that are increasingly developed. Knowledge and use of IT equipment, areas of basic IT knowledge, information literacy, wireless device skills, the role of clinical IT, and applied IT skills are some of the skills identified by this study. The use of various support tools as instruments for clinical decision-making in nursing is also fundamental to the quality of nursing care.
