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.

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.

Abstract

backgroundThe teach-back method is an effective approach for reinforcing patient education by clarifying and reviewing misunderstood concepts.

aimTo examine the effect of discharge training based on the teach-back method on discharge readiness and satisfaction in patients undergoing lumbar disc herniation surgery.

methodsA randomized controlled trial using a pre-test-post-test design was conducted at two state hospitals in Northern Cyprus from November 2022 to December 2023. A total of 64 patients were randomly assigned to either the intervention group (n = 32) or the control group (n = 32). Data were collected using the Discharge Education Satisfaction Scale, the Readiness for Hospital Discharge Scale, and the Discharge Education Knowledge Test. The CONSORT 2010 flow diagram was followed.

resultsThe mean ages of the intervention and control groups were 51.26 ± 11.92 years and 46.50 ± 11.73 years, respectively. Following the intervention, patients who underwent lumbar disc herniation surgery in the intervention group showed significantly higher scores compared to the control group (p < 0.05). These improvements were observed in overall discharge education satisfaction, discharge education knowledge, and all subdimensions of discharge readiness-including personal status, knowledge, and coping ability. LINKING EVIDENCE TO ACTION: Discharge education delivered using the teach-back method enhances satisfaction, knowledge, and discharge readiness in patients undergoing lumbar disc herniation surgery.

trial registrationThe full research protocol is available at ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT05695014).
