1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundVirtual reality training can save resources and improve training efficiency. The cooperation of trauma team can shorten the treatment time and improve the treatment efficiency.

methodsThis study employed a quasi-experimental design to evaluate standardized trauma team performance scores among emergency nurses following VR training. Participants included 68 emergency department nurses from a tertiary Grade A hospital in Wuhan, China, who were divided into 17 groups (4 members per group) through convenience sampling. All teams underwent training using a virtual reality training system developed by the research team. Paired-sample t-tests were conducted to compare differences in standardized trauma team performance scores across all 17 groups between pre-intervention (March-May 2023) and post-intervention (September-November 2023) periods. Subsequently, qualitative research was implemented using semi-structured interviews to capture participants' experiential feedback regarding the VR training system.

resultsCompared to traditional training, the use of the VR training system resulted in significantly enhanced teamwork performance among emergency nurses during simulated trauma first aid scenarios. Interview results indicated that the system's novel format deepened professional understanding, conserved resources, increased practice opportunities, and enhanced the efficiency of trauma first aid nursing training. Moreover, it facilitated multi-role experiences, facilitating teamwork exercises.

conclusionThe Virtual Reality training system for trauma first aid nursing teamwork enhances emergency nurses' comprehensive trauma care capabilities, improves trauma training effectiveness, and is worthy of clinical promotion.
