Current Practice Trends in Knee Arthroplasty in India Among ISHKS Members: ISHKS Annual Meeting 2019.

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
Aim: To assess the current practice trends in knee arthroplasty in India among ISHKS members. Methods: Literature review on 12 areas of key interest in total knee arthroplasty was conducted. Twenty-eight questions pertaining to these key areas in total knee arthroplasty surgery were presented to the delegates for a physical voting with audience response system (ARS) at ISHKS meeting, Bangalore, 2019. The members who could not attend the meeting voted by an online monkey survey. All questions were given three responses: a. Agree, b. Disagree, and c. Abstain. Results: 310 delegates participated and 295 voted in the physical meeting and 110 voted online. Consensus was reached for 28 statements representing five domains on the best practices. Overall, 92% of statements reached unanimous or strong consensus. The statements that achieved strong majority (> 90%) were the factors on pre-operative skin preparations, administration of antibiotics 30 min prior skin incision, and current practices of bilateral TKR. Furthermore, there was strong consensus approval on the role of aspirin for prophylaxis of DVT, lack of benefit on use of drain, considerations for pre-emptive analgesia, and neuraxial anesthesia. Finally, there were disparate views and weak consensus on use of laminar airflow theaters and use of surgical space suits, length of antibiotic administration postoperatively, and linking of DVT with PE and death. Conclusion: This study gives the surgeon practice preferences in knee arthroplasty in India and assists in clinical decision-making for all healthcare professionals.
