A qualitative study of nurse-patient communication and information provision during surgical pre-admission clinics.
Article in Health expectations : an international journal of public participation in health care and health policy, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
backgroundHealth-care service users are often being described as 'co-producers' with an active role in their care. However, there are challenges associated with this approach, including how standardization affects personalized care, and the ability of patients to retain high volumes of information.
objectiveOur study explores patient and nursing perspectives of information provision in the pre-admission element of an Enhanced Recovery After Surgery programme, an evidence-based approach implemented to improve the quality of surgical care. Our analysis has been informed by an evidence-based model developed by Grande et al Patient Educ Couns. 2014;95:281. DESIGN/SETTING AND
participantsThis was a qualitative study including observations of pre-admission clinics and semi-structured interviews across three surgical wards. Patients (n = 21) and registered nurses (n = 21) were purposively selected for interviews.
resultsPatients welcomed the opportunity for active involvement in their care. However, we also identified informational boundaries and how illness and treatment-related anxieties were barriers to patient engagement with the information provided. DISCUSSION: We recommend that to support a patient-centred and individualized approach to patient involvement the 'information (giving) + activation' element of Grande et al Patient Educ Couns. 2014;95:281 model be reconfigured to allow for 'information (giving) + exploration +activation'.
conclusionNurses need to feel empowered to adopt strategies that allow for different informational needs, rather than adopting a one-size-fits-all paternalistic approach. PATIENT CONTRIBUTION: This study focused on patient involvement and we give thanks to all the patients who took part in interviews and those who allowed us to observe their care.
