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

Despite the widespread agreement on the need for the regular repositioning of at-risk individuals for pressure injury prevention and management, adherence to repositioning schedules remains poor in the clinical environment. The situation in the home environment is likely even worse. Our team has developed a non-contact system that can determine an individual's position in bed (left-side lying, supine, or right-side lying) using data from a set of inexpensive load cells placed under the bed. This system was able to detect whether healthy participants were left-side lying, supine, or right-side lying with 94.2% accuracy in the lab environment. The objective of the present work was to deploy and test our system in the home environment for use with individuals who were sleeping in their own beds. Our system was able to detect the position of our nine participants with an F1 score of 0.982. Future work will include improving generalizability by training our classifier on more participants as well as using this system to evaluate adherence to two-hour repositioning schedules for pressure injury prevention or management. We plan to deploy this technology as part of a prompting system to alert a caregiver when a patient requires repositioning.
