Subclaims¶
Reading the evidence codes
q is the design tier, i the impact, n the sample, and the kind with its r
the rigour judged within that kind: what each code means.
This claim: no standardized effect is recorded in observations/ for it yet, so no benchmark reading is possible.
q3 i? Nurses receiving e-learning had significantly higher knowledge gain for managing pressure injuries than nurses that did not receive e-learning, with a pooled SMD of 1.40 (95%CI: 0.45–2.35; I² = 93.1%). → Ding 2024
Evidence¶
Ding 2024¶
Ding, Y., Qian, J., Zhou, Y., & Zhang, Y. (2024). Effect of e‐learning program for improving nurse knowledge and practice towards managing pressure injuries: A systematic review and meta‐analysis. Nursing Open, 11, e2039. https://doi.org/10.1002/nop2.2039
q3 · i? · quant-synthesis · r2
Random-effects meta-analysis of four studies reporting nurse knowledge outcomes, pooled as standardized mean differences. The review reports "pooled SMD was 1.40" with p < 0.004; no standardized effect-size category beyond the SMD is printed, so impact is unclassified. Sensitivity analysis showed no single-study effects.
"The pooled SMD was 1.40 (95%CI: 0.45–2.35; I 2 = 93.1%). This shows that nurses receiving e‐learning had significantly higher knowledge gain for managing pressure injuries compared to nurses that did not receive e‐learning, with p‐value of <0.004"
Discussion¶
Related Claims¶
- E-learning programs significantly improve nurses' pressure injury classification skills when scored as a continuous outcome (pooled SMD 2.53) — related
- Educational interventions substantially improve nurse leaders' EBP competence (SMD = 1.76) — a broader claim this one bears on
- E-learning shows no statistically significant effect on nurses' pressure injury classification skills when scored as a binary outcome (pooled OR 1.75, p = 0.08) — related
