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

backgroundNursing students are often noncompliant with foundational patient safety procedures during medication administration. PURPOSE: Determine the effectiveness of deliberate practice on hand hygiene and patient identification compliance among prelicensure nursing students during simulated medication administration.

methodsA repeated-measures quasi-experimental study was conducted at 4 schools of nursing. Participants independently completed 8 simulated scenarios across 2 semesters. Deliberate practice occurred after each simulation. Data were collected using the Observational Medication Administration Tool. Changes in compliance were analyzed using the Generalized Estimating Equations model.

resultsSixty students participated. Hand hygiene compliance improved from 17% at baseline (T0) to 59% at final assessment (T7). Patient identification compliance improved from 47% at T0 to 90% at T7. Statistically significant ( P < .001) improvements occurred across assessment times.

conclusionsFindings provide support for deliberate practice in improving compliance with hand hygiene and patient identification. Continued focus and reinforcement of foundational patient safety procedures with nursing students is recommended.
