Surgical Nurses' Perceptions of Strategies to Enhance Pain Management Proficiency: A Qualitative Study.
Article in Nursing reports (Pavia, Italy), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
To describe surgical nurses' strategies for enhancing their pain management proficiency. A qualitative design was used to conduct the study. The participants were forty surgical nurses who had at least six years of nursing experience in caring for patients with pain. They responded to open-ended questions based on a review of the policy documents concerning the main elements of the pain management programme to be implemented by surgical nurses. Three key themes emerged from the surgical nurses' suggested strategies: partnering, disrupting, and becoming familiar with pain management competency concerns. Surgical nurses' strategies in acute and chronic pain management nursing units included solving patients' problems and promoting and enhancing pain strategies to address health challenges in organisations. The themes presented in the results include enhancing pain management in nursing competencies. State-of-the-art healthcare technologies are being applied to pain management. Surgical nurses' strategies should improve the quality of nursing care, especially post-surgery recovery time. It is recommended to engage patients, their families, and multidisciplinary care teams in other healthcare fields.
