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.

q2 i3 NTSRS scores had a very strong negative correlation with the number of near misses (r = -0.92, p < 0.001). → Mahendran Vimaladhithan 2024 q2 i? Surgeon's experience did not correlate with NTSRS scores except in decision-making, which the authors say highlights the importance of training in NTS. → Mahendran Vimaladhithan 2024

q2 · i3 · review · r3

Multi-centre live-operating-theatre study by Manuguerra et al. developing the NTSRS tool, reported within the review. The review reports the near-miss correlation and that "the surgeon's experience did not correlate with NTSRS scores except in decision-making".

"Scores had a very strong negative correlation with number of near misses (r = -0.92, p < 0.001)"
