Enhancing Observer Learning in Paediatric Resuscitation Simulations via Real-Time Telecommunication Tools.
Article in Cureus, 2026. 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
objectivesThis study aimed to enhance observer learning in high-fidelity paediatric resuscitation simulations by implementing real-time telecommunication tools, such as WhatsApp (Meta Platforms, Inc., Menlo Park, CA).
methodsPaediatric resuscitation simulation workshops were conducted in 2023 and 2025, involving 41 participants. A structured observer programme utilised WhatsApp for dynamic interaction, enabling facilitators to engage observers with targeted questions and reinforce learning. Post-workshop surveys, using a five-point Likert scale and free text, evaluated the learning experience. The data were analysed quantitatively and qualitatively.
resultsBoth workshops achieved a 100% survey response rate. Participants unanimously agreed or strongly agreed on administration quality and learning objective achievement. Qualitative data highlighted the benefits of micro-debriefs and WhatsApp for interaction and reinforcement. However, a key challenge was multitasking between observing the simulation and engaging with WhatsApp prompts, indicating potential cognitive overload.
conclusionReal-time telecommunication tools like WhatsApp can significantly enhance observer learning in paediatric resuscitation simulations. Careful timing and balancing digital interactions are critical to improving the educational experience and preventing cognitive overload.
