Engagement and Bundle Compliance during COVID-19: A Virtual Strategy.
Article in Pediatric quality & safety. 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
COVID-19 forced industries to change work processes; this was no different for those working to improve patient outcomes in healthcare. Due to competing priorities, many hospitals struggled with the upkeep of hospital-acquired condition (HAC) auditing and engagement. Children's National hospital developed a three-pronged approach for virtual engagement and sustainment of the processes necessary to achieve and maintain goal auditing and bundle compliance in three HACs: unplanned extubation, central line-associated bloodstream infections, and employee staff safety overexertion injuries. Methods: The overall goal was to create a flexible approach to maintaining engagement while relying on virtual communication. Aim: To maintain, without a decrease of more than 20%, the baseline bundle compliance per month for each HAC (unplanned extubation, central line-associated bloodstream infections, and employee staff safety) from March 2020 to March 2021. Our approach to increasing bundle compliance (primary outcome measure) and audits (process measure) included: regular leadership meetings using multiple virtual modalities, improving the audit process, and ensuring fidelity to bundle elements. Results: Qualitatively, we have found that microsystem leaders regularly engage with quality improvement staff and their teams using virtual touchpoints and ongoing communication. We exceeded the goal of maintaining our monthly bundle compliance, and we saw a significant positive change in the rate of audits after COVID-19. Conclusions: In a time of change during a pandemic, increased engagement in HAC work can adapt structure and processes. Our results are generalizable by increasing touchpoints using multiple virtual modalities.
