Study design Multi-center Open label RCT Population 463 patients Inclusion criteria: study coordinators in the Large Observational Study to Understand the Global Impact of Severe Acute Respiratory Failure study Key exclusion criteria: no informed consent to participate Interventions N=212 intervention (an online training module followed by a test module) N=252 control (test module followed by training module) Primary outcome Number of correct answers on test module 58.0 % 58 56 43.5 % 29.0 % 14.5 % No significant difference 0.0 % https://web.pathway.md/studies/recHG4NflE3LLQ0IF 1/2 6/29/23, 12:44 AM READS Pathway Intervention Control No significant difference in the number of correct answers on the test module (58% vs. 56%; AD 2%, 95% CI -0.72 to 4.72) Secondary outcomes Significant increase in between-rater agreement for all radiographs in the test module (0.296 vs. 0.272; AD 0.024, 95% CI 0.01 to 0.04) No significant difference in analysis restricted to physicians (60% vs. 57%; AD 3%, 95% CI -0.47 to 6.47) No significant difference in the number of correct answers on the test module with equivocal radiographs considered together with consistent radiographs (70% vs. 69%; AD 1%, 95% CI -4.21 to 6.21) Conclusion In study coordinators in the Large Observational Study to Understand the Global Impact of Severe Acute Respiratory Failure study, intervention was not superior to control with respect to number of correct answers on the test module.
