Efficacy and Feasibility of Chhattisgarh Balloon and Conventional Condom Balloon Tamponade: A 2-Year Prospective Study.

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
objectiveTo evaluate the clinical efficacy of two types of condom uterine balloon tamponade systems, namely Chhattisgarh condom balloon device "CG balloon (CGB)" having a central drainage channel as well as indigenous tying system to fasten condom to the catheter and conventional condom uterine balloon device (C-UBT) as a second-line intervention in post-partum haemorrhage (PPH). MATERIALS AND
methodsThe present non-randomised prospective case series was carried out from December 2014 to September 2016 and included 60 women having PPH which was refractory to first-line management and who were treated with either of the two condom balloon tamponade devices prepared on spot. Women with allergy to latex, retained placenta, uterine rupture, anomaly, genital infection and/or malignancy were excluded. Case report forms were filled for all participants and analysed. Primary outcome was arrest of haemorrhage, and one of the secondary outcomes was cost and consistency of the devices.
resultsCGB was used in 46 and C-UBT in 14 women. The overall success rate was 98.33%. The mean blood loss was 1417 mL. Women of C-UBT group had greater blood loss, higher inflation volume and delays due to technical issues (OR 7.6). CGB was cheaper and more consistent than C-UBT by omitting the use of suture material.
conclusionCGB and conventional condom balloon tamponade both are easy to use, feasible and efficacious for control of PPH, but CGB condom balloon device has the advantage of a central drainage lumen for real-time assessment of blood loss and therefore early corrective action.
