Improving stroke pathways using an adhesive ambulatory ECG patch: reducing time for patients to ECGs and subsequent results.

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
Three south-London hospital trusts undertook a feasibility study, comparing data from 93 patients who received the 14-day adhesive ambulatory electrocardiography (ECG) patch Zio XT with retrospective data from 125 patients referred for 24-hour Holter for cryptogenic stroke and transient ischaemic attack following negative 12-lead ECG. As the ECG patch was fitted the same day as the clinical decision for ambulatory ECG monitoring was made, median time to the patient having the monitor fitted was significantly reduced in all three hospital trusts compared with 24-hour Holter being ordered and fitted. Hospital visits reduced by a median of two for patients receiving Zio XT. This project supports that it is feasible to use a patch as part of routine clinical care with a positive impact on care pathways.
