Charting Progress: A Reflective Debriefing for Novice Perioperative Nurses.
Article in AORN journal, 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
Perioperative nursing faces staffing shortages, high turnover, and resource-intensive orientation that threaten safety and operational efficiency. Charting Progress is an internally developed program at a multicampus academic medical center that complements existing curricula by addressing readiness, resilience, and professional identity formation. The program integrates peer-led strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats reflection; intraoperative mock code simulation; leadership dialogue to clarify expectations; and career pathway mapping grounded in emotional intelligence principles. In October 2025, nine novice perioperative nurses participated. Self-reported confidence in core OR skills increased from 62.5% to 75.0%, and perceived readiness to advance increased from 62.5% to 87.5% by program completion. Costs were minimized by using existing simulation resources, protected staff time, and a half-day cohort format. Limitations included the small sample size, limited campus participation, and reliance on self-reported data with possible response bias. Overall, findings suggest this concise emotional intelligence program may accelerate transition to practice.
