What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting This study
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.

Summary

New nurses often struggle in fast-paced trauma units, and many leave within two years. This study tests whether a two-day Basic Trauma Training (BTT) program, added to standard orientation, helps newly graduated nurses in Saudi trauma hospitals feel more satisfied, engaged, and less burned out, and more likely to stay. The study compares two groups of nurses at two hospitals: one receiving standard orientation and another receiving orientation plus BTT. Questionnaires measure job satisfaction, engagement, burnout, and retention plans, and hospital records track actual retention at 6 and 12 months.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Basic Trauma Training (BTT) Programme - a structured two-day educational program with modules on trauma assessment, critical interventions, communication, and self-care, delivered via didactic teaching, simulation, and reflection.
What this could lead to
If effective, this training could become a standard addition to hospital orientation, helping to reduce early turnover and improve nurse well-being in high-pressure trauma units.
What could go wrong
This is a small, two-site study without random assignment, so results may not apply broadly. The training is brief, and its long-term impact on retention remains uncertain.
