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

Audit and Feedback (A&F) is an effective multidimensional strategy for improving the quality of care. The optimal methods for its implementation remain unclear. This study aimed to map the state of art of A&F strategies in the hospitals involved in a time-dependent emergency network. For these purposes, a structured questionnaire was defined and discussed within the research group. This consists of 29 questions in three sections: (1) characteristics of the structure, (2) internal feedback systems, and (3) external feedback systems. All structures involved in the network were invited to participate in the e-survey by indicating a Health Management representative and a clinical representative for the Cardiovascular (CaV) and/or for the Cerebrovascular area (CeV). Of 20 structures invited, a total of 13 (65%) responded to the survey, 11 for the CaV area and 8 for the CeV area. A total of 10 of 11 (91%) facilities for the CaV area and 8/11 (75%) for the CeV area reported that they perform A&F activities. All facilities perform at least one of the activities defined as "assimilating A&F procedures." The most frequent is the presentation and discussion of clinical cases (82% CaV and 88% CeV) and the least is the identification of responsible for improvement actions (45% CaV and 38% CeV). In 4/10 (40%) facilities for the CaV area and 4/8 (50%) for the CEV area, corrective actions are suggested or planned when the feedback is returned. These results confirm the need to define, in a synergistic way with the relevant stakeholders, an effective and agreed A&F intervention to improve the level of implementation of A&F strategies.
