Silicone adhesive multilayer foam dressings for preventing facial pressure injuries in COVID-19 patients in prone position.
Article in Journal of the Intensive Care Society, 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
The development of facial pressure injury (PI) during prone position is frequently described. During the COVID-19 pandemic, the number of patients with facial PIs increased. This quality improvement project describes the effectiveness of using silicone adhesive multilayer foams for preventing facial PIs in COVID-19 patients in need of prone position therapy. After introduction of foam dressing on chin and forehead to the standard protocol procedures for PI prevention, the decrease in number of patients developing facial PIs was statistically significant. Based on these results, the use of silicone adhesive multilayer foam will be implemented as a standard procedure for facial PIs prevention.
