SAGES SAFE CHOLE program changes surgeons practice in France-results of the FCVD implementation of SAFE CHOLE in France.

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
backgroundWith the Society of Gastrointestinal and Endoscopic Surgeons supervision, the Safe Cholecystectomy Task Force (SAFE CHOLE) was translated into French by the the Federation of Visceral and Digestive Surgery (FCVD) and adopted to run on its national e-learning platform for surgical continuing medical education (CME). The objective of this study was to assess the impact of the SAFE CHOLE (SF) program on the knowledge and practice of French surgeons performing cholecystectomy and participating in the FCVD lead CME activity.
methodsTo obtain CME certification, each participant must fill out three FCVD validated questionnaires regarding (1) the participants' routine practice for cholecystectomy, (2) the participants' knowledge and practice after successful completion of the program, and (3) the educational value of the SC program.
resultsFrom 2021 to 2022, 481 surgeons completed the program. The overall satisfaction rate for the program was 81%, and 53% of the surgeons were practicing routine cholangiography before the SC program. Eighty percent declared having acquired new knowledge. Fifty-six percent reported a change in their practice of cholecystectomy. Of those, 46% started routinely using the critical view of safety, 12% used a time-out prior transection of vital structures, and 11% adopted routine intraoperative cholangiography. Sixty-seven percent reported performing a sub-total cholecystectomy in case the CVS was unobtainable. If faced with BDI, 45% would transfer to a higher level of care, 33% would seek help from a colleague, and 10% would proceed with a repair. Ninety percent recommended adoption of SC by all general surgeons and 98% reported improvement of patient safety.
conclusionsLarge-scale implementation of the SC program in France is feasible within a broad group of diverse specialty surgeons and appears to have a significant impact on their practice. These data should encourage other surgeons and health systems to engage in this program.
