Evaluation of a Telehealth-Enabled Pilot Program to Address Intensive Care Unit Health Care Worker Mental Health Distress.

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
Introduction: Health care workers (HCWs) are at heightened risk of adverse mental health events (AMHEs) and burnout with resultant impact on health care staffing, outcomes, and costs. We piloted a telehealth-enabled mental health screening and support platform among HCWs in the intensive care unit (ICU) setting at a tertiary care center. Methods: A survey consisting of validated screening tools was electronically disseminated to a potential cohort of 178 ICU HCWs. Participants were given real-time feedback on their results and those at risk were provided invitations to meet with resiliency clinicians. Participants were further invited to engage in a 3-month longitudinal assessment of their well-being through repeat surveys and a weekly text-based check-in coupled with self-help tips. Programmatic engagement was evaluated and associations between at-risk scores and engagement were assessed. Qualitative input regarding programmatic uptake and acceptance was gathered through key informant interviews. Results: Fifty (28%) HCWs participated in the program. Half of the participants identified as female, and most participants were white (74%) and under the age of 50 years (93%). Nurses (38%), physicians-in-training (24%), and faculty-level physicians (20%) engaged most frequently. There were 19 (38%) requests for an appointment with a resiliency clinician. The incidence of clinically significant symptoms of AMHEs and burnout was high but not clearly associated with engagement. Additional programmatic tailoring was encouraged by key informants while time was identified as a barrier to program engagement. Discussion: A telehealth-enabled platform is a feasible approach to screening at-risk HCWs for AMHEs and can facilitate engagement with support services.
