Objective Structured Clinical Examination for pediatric medication administration.

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 systematic evaluation of clinical competencies of nursing professionals has been a subject of interest among educators, professionals, and other experts in this field, which enables the tracking of the graduation profile, career trajectory, and achievement of goals throughout the professional career. Faculty must prioritize efficiency in the performance of future nursing professionals by using instruments such as clinical simulation for practice development. Objective: To determine the construct validity of the objective structured clinical examination (OSCE) for assessing competence in pediatric medication administration. Materials and Methods: An observational, psychometric, and prospective study was conducted to determine the validity and reliability of the instrument "Objective Structured Clinical Examination for pediatric medication administration." Results: The final instrument consisted of 15 items. Bartlett's test of sphericity was significant (χ2 =145.887, p < 0.001), and the Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin (KMO) measure of sampling adequacy was acceptable (0.703). Cronbach's alpha for the total instrument was 0.798. Discussion: Developing psychometric tests for an OSCE in medication administration provides an empirical indicator that can be used accurately in nursing professionals' work. Conclusion: The validity of the OSCE for assessing competence in pediatric medication administration was established, and the instrument was deemed moderately acceptable for application in this area of knowledge. Its use favors both learning and evaluative processes of clinical practice for health sciences students.
