Visitor's Experiences of an Evidence-Based Designed Healthcare Environment in an Intensive Care Unit.

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
objectivesThe objective of the research was to study the visitors' experiences of different healthcare environment designs of intensive care unit (ICU) patient rooms.
backgroundThe healthcare environment may seem frightening and overwhelming in times when life-threatening conditions affect a family member or close friend and individuals visit the patient in an ICU. A two-bed patient room was refurbished to enhance the well-being of patients and their families according to the principles of evidence-based design (EBD). No prior research has used the Person-centred Climate Questionnaire-Family version (PCQ-F) or the semantic environment description (SMB) in the ICU setting.
methodsA sample of 99 visitors to critically ill patients admitted to a multidisciplinary ICU completed a questionnaire; 69 visited one of the two control rooms, while 30 visited the intervention room.
resultsFor the dimension of everydayness in the PCQ-F, a significantly better experience was expressed for the intervention room (
conclusionDesigning and implementing an enriched healthcare environment in the ICU setting increases person-centered care in relation to the patients' visitors. This could lead to better outcomes for the visitors, for example, decreasing post-traumatic stress disorder symptoms, but this needs further investigations.
