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

Background: The COVID-19 pandemic has strained health systems world wide. In our region, surging numbers of critically ill adult patients demanded urgent system-wide responses. During the peak of the pandemic, our Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU) team redesigned the existing educational resources and processes of care to ensure for adult patients for the first time in the hospital's history. Aim: Describe the experiences and impacts of the rapidly initiated Adult COVID-19 Program on health care providers (HCP) and family members. Havelock's Theory of Change framed the examination of Adult COVID-19 Program participant experiences and surfaced lessons learned. Materials and Methods: A quality improvement review was employed to collect feedback about the program experience from the health care team and patient's family members. HCP completed a questionnaire 10 months following the implementation of the program and feedback from family members was provided during the program was obtained. Havelock's Theory of Change was used to explore trends and frame participants' experiences. Results: Pediatric Intensive Care Unit bedside team members and clinical leaders ( Conclusion: The PICU team rapidly adapted to provide care for adults at the peak of the pandemic. Family members expressed feeling grateful for the care their loved ones received in the pediatric setting. The experience of caring for adult patients with COVID-19 was a source of tension, personal growth, and meaning for the pediatric intensive care team.
