1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Telehealth services for patient visits have substantially surged during the COVID-19 pandemic. Thus, there is increased importance and demand for high-quality telehealth clinical documentation. However, little is known about how clinical data documentation is collected and the quality of data items included. This study aimed to identify the current state of and gaps in documentation and develop a best practice strategy for telehealth record documentation. Data were collected from January to February 2021 via a self-designed questionnaire for administrators and managers from physicians' offices and mental health facilities, resulting in 76 valid responses. Survey items included health organization demographic information, use of telehealth policies and procedures, and clinical documentation for telehealth patient visits. Findings from this study can be used to assist government, policymakers, and healthcare organizations in developing best practices in telehealth usage and clinical documentation improvement strategies.
