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

backgroundThere is a need to adopt evidence-based approaches to discharge planning in the skilled nursing facility (SNF) short stay population. PURPOSE: This article describes implementation of the Reengineered Discharge (RED) process in SNFs and makes recommendations for its future implementation.

methodsThe methods included a pre- and postanalysis of an 18-month RED implementation with a contemporaneous comparison of 4 Midwestern SNFs randomly assigned to 2 different RED implementation strategies. The Standard facilities received less implementation than Enhanced facilities.

resultsStandard SNFs made more improvements and were more satisfied with the improved process than Enhanced SNFs. Field notes revealed that corporate willingness to make process changes impacted the Standard group's capacity for change; both groups were heavily influenced by external forces, and turnover was an impediment to RED implementation.

conclusionThis research revealed that discharge processes are similar across settings and that evidence-based programs such as RED can be adapted to the SNF setting.
