Exploring factors that influence success when introducing "The Safewards Model" to an acute adolescent ward: A qualitative study of staff perceptions.

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
problemThe Safewards' model identifies factors that can lead to conflict and addresses these factors, using ten interventions, within inpatient mental health wards aiming to reduce "conflict and containment." The Department of Health (2014) and Care Quality Commission (2017) supported the use of Safewards to reduce restrictive practice across all mental health settings in the UK, but its application to adolescent mental health remains relatively unexplored. This study therefore aims to address the research question: "What are the factors influencing the success of ten Safewards' interventions when implemented onto an acute adolescent ward?"
methodsEight healthcare assistants and two nurses who had attended Safewards' training participated in semi-structured interviews four months after Safewards was introduced to an acute adolescent ward. The interviews were transcribed verbatim and analyzed using thematic analysis. Data analysis was conducted inductively by developing data-driven themes.
findingsMany of the factors influencing Safewards' success in adolescent mental health (e.g., acuity; dependence on nonregular staffing; lack of leadership and operating procedures) paralleled the evidence found in adult services.
conclusionsThis study contributes new information by implementing "mutual help" and "calm down" principles with adolescents, as well as discussing barriers of operational procedures and benefits of patient involvement.
