Strategies to maintain a family-centered care approach in the era of COVID-19: Experiences of a Canadian pediatric cardiology program.
Article in Progress in pediatric cardiology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in strict provincial guidelines to prevent its spread. Physical distancing requirements, the postponement of elective pediatric cardiac surgeries and non-invasive cardiac interventions, and hospital visitor restrictions have significantly impacted services provided by our pediatric cardiac program. Rapid modifications to current inpatient and outpatient practices were required to maintain a family-centered care approach. Strategies our team used to maintain a family-centered care approach focused on six key areas including inpatient care, outpatient pediatric cardiology clinics, family meetings, discharge planning and teaching, the connection of inpatient pediatric patients to the outside world, and social support. The majority of our strategies are adaptable to other pediatric cardiology programs and some may prove useful after the pandemic and as restrictions lift. These strategies each have their own limitations and challenges that must be considered when adapting them to other pediatric cardiology programs and continuing their use after the pandemic has resolved.
