IT risk management for medical devices in hospital IT networks: a catalogue of measures and indicators.
Article in BMJ health & care informatics, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
objectivesConnecting medical devices to hospital IT networks can create threats that must be covered by IT risk management. In practice, implementing such risk management is not trivial because the IEC 80001-1, as the existing state-of-the-art, do not describe sufficiently concrete implementation measures or evaluation indicators. The aim of the present work was to develop and evaluate a catalogue of measures and indicators to help hospitals implement and evaluate risk management in accordance with IEC 80001-1.
methodsWe conducted a Delphi study with 22 experts. In the first round, we performed interviews to identify implementation measures and evaluation indicators using qualitative content analysis. In the second round, a quantitative experts' survey confirmed the results of the first survey round and identified relationships between the measures and indicators. Based on these results, we then developed a catalogue containing the identified measures and indicators. Finally, we performed a case study to verify the practicability of this catalogue.
resultsWe developed and verified a catalogue of 49 measures and 18 indicators to help hospitals implement and evaluate risk management following IEC 80001-1. The case study confirmed the practicability of the catalogue. DISCUSSION: Compared with IEC 80001-1, our catalogue goes into further detail to offer hospitals a stepwise implementation and evaluation approach. However, the catalogue must be tested in further case studies and evaluated in terms of generalisation.
conclusionsThe catalogue will enable hospitals to overcome recent difficulties in implementing and evaluating IT risk management for medical devices according to IEC 80001-1.
