Relationship between Medication Safety Competence and Perception of Medication Administration Errors among Clinical Nurses: A Cross-sectional Study.
Review in Journal of caring sciences, 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
Introduction: All nursing care must be performed without harming the patient. Medication errors pose a significant threat to patient safety. This study aimed to determine the relationship between medication safety competence (MSC) and clinical nurses' perceptions of medication administration errors (MAEs). Methods: This descriptive-correlational study was conducted among 300 clinical nurses. Participants were selected using stratified random sampling in 2024. Data were collected using a demographic characteristics form, the Medication Safety Competence Scale (MSCS), and the Medication Administration Error Reporting Survey. Data were analyzed using SPSS version 13, employing descriptive and inferential statistics. Results: The results indicated that the mean (SD) scores for MSC and MAEs were 294.22 (26.61) and 135.48 (15.14), respectively. Scores ranged from 36 to 185 for MSC and 65 to 425 for MAEs. Statistical analysis revealed significant correlations between MAEs and gender, marital status, Work experience, and participation in the MSC workshop. Simple linear regression analysis showed that the "Underreporting of MAEs" domain was the strongest predictor of MSC among the variables examined. Conclusion: The nurses who participated in this study reported moderate levels of MSC and perceived a moderate frequency of MAEs. Healthcare policymakers and decision-makers should implement strategies such as conducting ideation sessions and practical workshops to reduce medication errors and enhance nurses' MSC.
