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.
q2 i? In the tracheostomy study, the VR intervention group showed significantly greater reduced anxiety (93% vs 75%, P=.002) than the regular training group. → Pérez de los Cobos Cintas C 2025

q2 · i? · review · r3
The review reports this prospective pre-post study of 60 health care providers, where the VR group showed "reduced anxiety (93% vs 75%, P=.002)" compared with regular training at follow-up.
"at follow-up, the intervention group showed significantly higher agreement with statements about increased familiarity (83% vs 76%, P=.04), enhanced confidence (92% vs 74%, P=.001), and reduced anxiety (93% vs 75%, P=.002)."
