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 i1 Subgroup analysis by years of participation found residents (knowledge SMD = 0.28, P = 0.0003) and three- and four-year medical/nurse students (SMD = 0.37, P = 0.03) benefited in knowledge, while first-year medical/nurse students showed no benefit (SMD = 0.66; 95% CI: −0.31–1.64, P = 0.18, I2 = 85%). → Zeng Qin 2023 q3 i1 For skill performance, only residents benefited from HF simulation (SMD = 0.55; 95% CI: 0.05–1.05, P = 0.03, I2 = 86%). → Zeng Qin 2023 (2)

Zeng Qin 2023¶

q3 · i1 · quant-synthesis · r3

Subgroup analysis of the knowledge outcome by participant seniority (Supplement 3). Residents ("SMD = 0.28; 95% CI: 0.13–0.43, P = 0.0003") and third/fourth-year students benefited; first-year students showed no significant benefit (P = 0.18) with high heterogeneity (I2 = 85%).

"The result show that residents (SMD = 0.28; 95% CI: 0.13–0.43, P = 0.0003, I2 = 0%) and three- and four-year medical/nurse students (SMD = 0.37; 95% CI: 0.04–0.69, P = 0.03, I2 = 77%) were benefit from HF simulation. However, fist-year medical/nurse students had no benefit from HF simulation (SMD = 0.66; 95% CI: − 0.31–1.64, P = 0.18, I2 = 85%)."

Zeng Qin 2023 (2)¶

q3 · i1 · quant-synthesis · r3

Subgroup analysis of skill performance by participant seniority (Supplement 5). "only residents benefit from HF simulation in skill (SMD = 0.55; 95% CI: 0.05–1.05, P = 0.03, I2 = 86%)".

"Furthermore, a subgroup analysis depending on years of participation of the participant also been conducted and found that only residents benefit from HF simulation in skill (SMD = 0.55; 95% CI: 0.05–1.05, P = 0.03, I2 = 86%)."

Discussion¶

HF simulation improves ALS knowledge at course conclusion more than LF simulation or traditional training (pooled SMD = 0.38) — a broader claim this one bears on
Knowledge benefit of HF simulation is greater against traditional training (SMD = 0.71) than against LF simulation (SMD = 0.22) — related
VR benefits examination scores for medical students but not significantly for residents — related
