Quality improvement initiative to impact Golden Hour timeliness using a dedicated delivery team.

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
objectiveGolden Hour (GH) care impacts immediate and long-term outcomes for premature infants. We hypothesized that creation of a dedicated delivery team, the Stork Team, would improve delivery of GH care.
methodsA GH quality improvement initiative was created for infants born at <32 weeks and implemented in July 2018. Data were collected from GH checklists and the electronic medical record.
resultsFollowing Stork Team implementation there was special cause variation noted in the minute of life (MOL) for administration of dextrose containing fluids and antibiotics. Dextrose containing fluid time improved from 111 to 67 MOL, with an increase in the percentage of patients receiving fluids by 60 MOL. Antibiotic administration improved from 180 to 82.5 MOL. GH checklist completion increased from 77% to 98% and time to isolette closure improved from 88 to 62 MOL.
conclusionImplementation of the Stork Team was associated with improvements in timeliness of GH care.
