Transthoracic Color Doppler Ultrasound-Guided Grooved Negative Pressure Drainage Tube Implantation in Pericardial Effusion After Cardiac Surgery.

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
introductionPericardial effusion is a common complication without a standard postoperative effusion treatment after cardiac surgery. The grooved negative pressure drainage tube has many advantages as the emerging alternative for drainage of pericardial effusion, such as it changes the structure of the traditional side hole, uses the capillary function to ensure drainage smooth, etc. The purpose of this study was to assess the feasibility and effectiveness of transthoracic color Doppler ultrasound-guided grooved negative pressure drainage tube implantation in pericardial effusion after cardiac surgery.
methodsAll patients with pericardial effusion after cardiac surgery who underwent transthoracic color Doppler ultrasound-guided grooved negative pressure drainage tube implantation between January 2019 and December 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. Treatment results (including clinical symptoms, effusion volume, color Doppler ultrasonography, and computed tomography scan) were investigated to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of this method.
resultsA total of 20 patients successfully underwent transthoracic color Doppler ultrasound-guided grooved negative pressure drainage tube implantation. After the operation, their symptoms (chest tightness, shortness of breath, etc.) were all relieved, and dark red or light red drainage fluid (> 200 ml) appeared in the newly placed drainage bottle. Color Doppler ultrasonography showed that the volume of pericardial effusion decreased significantly.
conclusionThe transthoracic color Doppler ultrasound-guided grooved negative pressure drainage tube is a safe and effective method for the treatment of postoperative pericardial effusion with less trauma, faster recovery, shorter in-hospital stay, and fewer complications.
