1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

objectiveCapnography is indicated as a guide to assess and monitor both endotracheal intubation and cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). Our primary objective was to determine the effect of the 2010 American Heart Association (AHA) guidelines on the frequency of capnography use during critical events in children in the emergency department (ED). Our secondary objective was to examine associations between patient characteristics and capnography use among these patients.

methodsA retrospective chart review was performed on children aged 0 to 21 years who were intubated or received CPR in 2 academic children's hospital EDs between January 2009 and December 2012. Age, sex, time of arrival, medical or traumatic cause, length of CPR, return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC), documented use of capnography and colorimetry, capnography values, and adverse events were recorded.

resultsTwo hundred ninety-two patients were identified and analyzed. Intubation occurred in 95% of cases and CPR in 30% of cases. Capnography was documented in only 38% of intubated patients and 13% of patients requiring CPR. There was an overall decrease in capnography use after publication of the 2010 AHA recommendations (P = 0.05). Capnography use was associated with a longer duration of CPR and return of spontaneous circulation.

conclusionsDespite the 2010 AHA recommendations, a minority of critically ill children are being monitored with capnography and an unexpected decrease in documented use occurred among our sample. Further education and implementation of capnography should take place to improve the use of this monitoring device for critically ill pediatric patients in the ED.
