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

objectiveTo establish multifactorial shoulder dystocia response and management protocol to promote sustainable practice change. DATA SOURCES/STUDY

settingPrimary data collection was conducted over 3 years. Implementation of the protocol spanned 13 months. Data collection occurred at five sites, which were chosen for their diversity in both patient mix and geographical location. STUDY

designCase study evaluation methodology was used to examine clinician engagement and protocol adoption. DATA COLLECTION

methodsThe training completion for all practice engagement team activities was collected by the site project manager and entered into a flat file. Data from the labor and delivery notes, medical records, and interviews with labor and delivery teams were gathered and analyzed by the senior investigator. PRINCIPAL

findingsIn the first year, there was a threefold increase in shoulder dystocia reporting, which continued in years 2 and 3. In the first year, 96 percent of clinicians completed all training elements and in subsequent years, 98 percent completed the follow-up training. Overall teams reached a 99 percent adoption rate of the shoulder dystocia protocol.

conclusionsSystem and site management teams implemented a standardized shoulder dystocia protocol that fostered effective teamwork and obstetric team readiness for managing shoulder dystocia emergencies.
