Improving Nurses’ Hand-off Process on Oncology Setting Using Lean Management Principles
Article in Asian Pacific journal of cancer prevention : APJCP, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Background: Patients in oncology setting are struggling with the complexed disease, and long and intensive treatment options. This increase the need of patients for more coordination and effective hand-off between health providers including nurses. Aims: The main aim of this project is to improve the effectiveness of hand-off between nurses in the oncology setting using lean management principles. Methods: One group pretest-posttest quasi-experimental design was conducted at King Hussain Cancer Center during quarter two to quarter four in 2017. The project was conducted using the lean tools including root cause analysis, redesigning the hand-off process; using structured tools, and standardization of the hand-off process. Results: The finding of this project showed a significant decreasing in the hand-off duration and the incidence of events related to nursing practice deviation in post-intervention. Moreover, the results showed that the nurse satisfaction score was improved. However, there is a little difference in patient satisfaction results between two quarters for overall satisfaction and per each domain. Conclusion: The project approved that the use of structured tools, safety briefing, and standardized hand-off process play important role in improving the effectiveness of the hand-off process.
