Challenges in managing a remote monitoring device clinic.
Article in Heart rhythm O2, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 16 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
backgroundRecent advances in remote cardiac monitoring technology have created new challenges for clinicians and staff working in device clinics who are left processing large volumes of data. Often, this process is fractured and inefficient, with occurrence of unnecessary alerts that strain staff time and resources.
objectiveThe purpose of this survey was to identify challenges allied health professional clinicians and staff encounter when managing a remote monitoring device clinic.
methodsA 27-item mixed methods survey was developed using a Qualtrics-encrypted, anonymous Web survey tool. Demographic information and questions rating satisfaction level for remote device clinic issues were obtained using a 5-point Likert scale. Three open-ended questions were included that addressed challenges and successes in managing a remote monitoring clinic and served as a method for identifying common themes.
resultsMajor themes identified were poor connectivity, staffing issues, and large volume of alerts. Approximately 50% of respondents were either satisfied or unsatisfied with issues surrounding managing remote monitoring device clinics. Strategies for success included optimizing alerts, assigning designated staff, and partnering with third-party platforms.
conclusionThis survey confirms these issues as an opportunity for industry and digital health leaders to determine best practices for incorporating these technologies into patient care.
