Understanding equitable and affirming communication moments and relationship milestones during the intensive care unit journey: findings from stage 1 of a design thinking project.

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
purposeCommunication is vital to facilitate patient and family-centred care (PFCC) and to build trusting relationships between intensive care unit (ICU) health care providers, the patient, and their loved ones in the ICU. The focus of this investigation was to identify, define, and refine key moments of communication, connection, and relationship building in the ICU through a lens of Equity, Diversity, Decolonization, and Inclusion (EDDI) to encourage meaningful communication and development of trusting relationships.
methodsWe conducted 13 journey mapping interviews with ICU health care providers, patients, and their loved ones as the first stage in a design thinking project. We used directed content analysis to identify intersections where principles of EDDI directly or indirectly impacted communication, relationships, and trust throughout the ICU journey. To serve diverse patients and their loved ones, accessibility, inclusivity, and cultural safety were foundational pillars of the design thinking project.
resultsThirteen ICU health care providers, patients, and their loved ones participated in journey mapping interviews. We defined and refined 16 communication moments and relationship milestones in the journey of a patient through the ICU (e.g., admission, crises, stabilization, discharge), and intersections where EDDI directly or indirectly impacted communication and connection during the ICU journey.
conclusionOur findings highlight that diverse intersectional identities impact communication moments and relationship milestones during an ICU journey. To fully embrace a paradigm of PFCC, consideration should be given to creating an affirming and safe space for patients and their loved ones in the ICU.
