The value of COPE therapy in the perioperative care of heart failure patients receiving left ventricular assist device implantation.

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
Purpose: This pilot study implemented Creating Opportunities for Personal Empowerment (COPE), a cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) intervention, in the perioperative care of patients with advanced heart failure awaiting left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation. Methods: Using a quasi-experimental study design, the patients were screened for anxiety and depression using the Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 (GAD-7) and Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) screening tools. If patients scored 5 or greater on either tool, they received COPE. Patients were re-evaluated following intervention. Results: Average scores for depression and anxiety symptoms pre-intervention were 10.6 and 10.2, respectively. Post intervention, scores decreased to an average of 5.4 and 3.2, respectively. Qualitative data suggests that they felt the intervention was helpful. Conclusion: Results show that it is possible to implement a multi-session CBT intervention in this population. The improvements in the severity of depression and anxiety symptoms in the five participants with LVAD is interesting and needs to be verified in a study with a larger sample size.
