Effect of In-Situation Versus Manchester Triage System-Based Initial Case Management on Hospital-Based Mortality: A Before and After Study.
Article in Indian journal of pediatrics, 2022. 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
objectiveTo compare mortality and treatment-initiation time pre- and post introduction of Manchester Triage System (MTS) in patients of age group 1 mo to 15 y admitted in a tertiary care hospital in India.
methodsPre- and post intervention study conducted on a prospective cohort of patients hospitalized over a period of 6 mo, who were triaged using MTS and compared with a retrospective cohort, who were not formally triaged using any system and were admitted to the hospital during the past 6 mo, prior to commencement of the study. Intervention was training of resident doctors for five MTS urgencies using flowcharts and discriminators and displaying them in the emergency room. Data on clinical and outcome variables were abstracted from hospital case record sheets in both the cohorts.
resultsThe present study was conducted from May 2019 to April 2020 including 450 patients hospitalized from August 2019 to January 2020 in a prospective cohort and a retrospective cohort of 450 patients hospitalized from January 2019 to June 2019. Overall mortality in pre-MTS group was 26.2% (118/450) as compared to 20.9% (94/450) in post-MTS group (p value = 0.021). Average treatment time was reduced from 30 to 10 min after implementation of MTS (p value = 0.001).
conclusionImplementation of MTS in pediatric emergency leads to statistically significant reduction of mortality and average treatment-initiation time.
