Association between limiting the number of open records in a tele-critical care setting and retract-reorder errors.
Article in Journal of the American Medical Informatics Association : JAMIA, 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
backgroundWrong patient selection errors may be tracked by retract-reorder (RAR) events. The aim of this quality improvement study was to assess the impact of reducing the number of concurrently open electronic health records from 4 to 2 on RAR errors generated by a tele-critical care service.
methodsThe study encompassed 32 months before and 21 months after restriction. Chi-Square test of proportions and T statistical process control chart for rare events were used.
resultsThere were 156 318 orders with 57 RAR errors (36.5/100 000 orders) before restriction, and 122 587 orders with 34 errors (27.7/100 000 orders) after. Rates were not statistically different (P = .20), but analysis was underpowered. When plotted on a T control chart, random variation was detected between RAR errors.
conclusionWe found no significant difference in RAR errors in the tele-critical care setting after open record limitation. Other strategies should be studied to reduce wrong patient selection errors.
