Patient weight was provided as indicated. Participant accuracy is shown in the middle columns, defined as percentage of participants locating each item. Participant speed is shown in the rightmost columns. Overall speed and accuracy are the average of all 10 items. Significance between preapplication and postapplication performance was determined by Wilcoxon signed rank test for overall speed and accuracy and Wilcoxon or Fisher’s exact test for individual items.
