Design and Evaluation of a Handheld Robotic Device for Peripheral Catheterization.
Article in Journal of medical devices, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Medical robots provide enhanced dexterity, vision, and safety for a broad range of procedures. In this article, we present a handheld, robotic device capable of performing peripheral catheter insertions with high accuracy and repeatability. The device utilizes a combination of ultrasound imaging, miniaturized robotics, and machine learning to safely and efficiently introduce a catheter sheath into a peripheral blood vessel. Here, we present the mechanical design and experimental validation of the device, known as VeniBot. Additionally, we present results on our ultrasound deep learning algorithm for vessel segmentation, and performance on tissue-mimicking phantom models that simulate difficult peripheral catheter placement. Overall, the device achieved first-attempt success rates of 97 ± 4% for vessel punctures and 89 ± 7% for sheath cannulations on the tissue mimicking models (n = 240). The results from these studies demonstrate the viability of a handheld device for performing semi-automated peripheral catheterization. In the future, the use of this device has the potential to improve clinical workflow and reduce patient discomfort by assuring a safe and efficient procedure.
