q3 i3 Meta-analysis of five single-arm pre-post studies shows a large benefit of high-fidelity simulation in skill performance (SMD 1.34; 95% CI 0.50–2.18) with substantial heterogeneity (I2 = 76%). → Huang Jichong 2019

q3 · i3 · quant-synthesis · r2

Meta-analysis of five single-arm pre-post studies of high-fidelity simulation in neonatal resuscitation training, four measuring individual scores and one team scores. The pooled skill-performance effect size was SMD = 1.34 (95% CI 0.50–2.18), a large benefit, with heterogeneity I2 = 76%.

"The pooled results by meta-analysis showed a large benefit with high-fidelity simulation in skill performance (SMD 1.34; 95% CI 0.50–2.18) and the evidence of heterogeneity with an I2 = 76% was also shown"
