Patient Perceptions of their COVID-19 Inpatient Hospital Experience: a Survey Exploring Inequities in Healthcare Delivery.
Observational study in Journal of racial and ethnic health disparities, 2023. 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
backgroundCompared with White patients, Black and Latinx patients have higher infection, hospitalization, and mortality rates from COVID-19; yet, little is known about their perspective before, during, and after a COVID-19 hospitalization. The objective of this study conducted in White, Black, and Latinx patients was to assess perceptions of their COVID-19-related hospitalization from onset of symptoms through the post-discharge period to identify disparities in their perceived care.
methodsA cross-sectional observational study using an online survey from May 19 to June 23, 2021, was conducted by The Harris Poll in 200 White, 200 Black, and 201 Latinx patients hospitalized for COVID-19 in the US. Main measures obtained included baseline demographic variables, socioeconomic status, and social determinants of health. Survey questions were specific to key aspects of the patient experience before, during, and after a COVID-19-related hospitalization.
resultsCompared with White patients, Latinx and Black patients faced unique challenges in their healthcare journey including higher likelihood of delaying their hospitalization (10% Black vs. 4% White patients, respectively, P = 0.025), lower perceived satisfaction with care (82% Latinx vs 91% White patients, P = 0.002), and lower trust in providers following their hospitalization (85% White vs. 65% Latinx [P = 0.027] and 73% Black [P = 0.050] patients).
conclusionsPatient perceptions of their COVID-19 hospitalization experience revealed disparities in perceived quality of care among minority groups. These findings offer insights that health inequities still exist, and strategies need to be taken to make health care delivery more equitable.
