Using a sociotechnical systems analysis to evaluate an intervention to improve opioid prescribing in emergency medicine.
Article in Applied ergonomics, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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 United States is facing an unprecedented epidemic of opioid addiction and death due to opioid overdose. In an effort to improve patient knowledge and safe use about opioids, an Electronic Medication Complete Communication (EMC2) opioid strategy was developed targeting opioid naïve patients in the Emergency Department (ED). We conducted pre and post sociotechnical systems analyses to evaluate the variance between the process before the intervention and whether or not the process changed as expected with the new intervention. Results were analyzed using thematic qualitative analysis. Sociotechnical systems modeling illustrates the complexity of designing interventions for emergency medicine that affect multiple patients, providers, work systems, technologies, and processes. The post work systems model illustrates that several elements in the external ED environment can affect the effectiveness of the intervention. Sociotechnical systems analysis is an effective tool to illustrate the opportunities for designing health system interventions and evaluating the fidelity of such interventions.
