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

In case of sudden-onset disasters (SODs), the World Health Organization deploys specialized emergency medical teams (EMTs); yet, the coordination and operation of such teams pose significant challenges. One issue is the lack of digital information systems and standards. We developed a highly customizable and scalable electronic medical record (EMR) system, tailored to EMT requirements, called the "Emergency Medical Team Operating System" (EOS). EOS was successfully tested through 9 realistic clinical tasks during a full-scale EU Module Exercise. During the initial evaluation, 21 team members from 9 countries evaluated the system positively, stressing the urgent need for an EMR for EMTs. EMTs face unique challenges during disaster relief missions. To provide an effective and coordinated delivery of care, there is a great need for an EMR tailored to the specific needs of EMTs. EOS may serve as an effective EMR during SOD missions.
