The impact of simulation-based emergency training on novice critical care nurses: a quasi-experimental study.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Objectives: This quasi-experimental study evaluated the impact of simulation-based emergency training on novice critical care nurses' knowledge, skills, and confidence compared to traditional clinical teaching, aiming to enhance their preparedness for high-pressure emergency scenarios. Methods: A pretest-posttest non-equivalent control group design was conducted in a Taiwan medical center's critical care unit from October 2023 to January 2024. Sixty-seven nurses with less than two years of experience were recruited via convenience sampling and assigned to an experimental group (n=32, simulation-based training) or a control group (n=35, traditional teaching). The experimental group underwent an OSCE-based intervention with three stations. Data were collected using the Nursing Competency Questionnaire, OSCE scoring rubric, and Learning Satisfaction Scale. Paired and independent t-tests with effect sizes (Cohen's d) were used for analysis. Results: The simulation group showed significant improvements in skills (t Conclusions: Simulation-based training effectively enhances skills and confidence in novice critical care nurses, complementing traditional methods. Integrating both approaches can optimize training outcomes, improving patient safety and nurse retention in medical education. These findings advocate for incorporating simulation into nursing curricula to better prepare novice nurses for emergency care. Future research should explore multi-center studies with objective measures.
