Effect of precision management scheme based on the best evidence summary on reducing catheter-associated urinary tract infection.

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
objectivesCatheter-associated urinary tract infection (CAUTI) is an important cause of prolonged hospital stay, which increases economic and medical burden for patients and hospitals, and it is a key focus of hospital infection prevention and control. However, there are currently few studies that convert evidence-based scientific evidence on CAUTI prevention and control into clinical applications and evaluation on its practical effects in combination with standardized infection ratio (SIR), the critical indicator of infection prevention and control. This study aims to establish a precision management plan for reducing the incidence of CAUTI, driven by the findings of a comprehensive evidence summary, to apply this plan across all the nursing units within the entire hospital, followed by a comparative analysis of CAUTI incidence, SIR, the average duration of indwelling urinary catheter for each patient, and the compliance rate on hand hygiene protocols for medical staff before and after the implementation of the precision management plan.
methodsBased on a comprehensive review of the best evidence for preventing CAUTI, a precision management plan was meticulously developed through panel discussions and 2 rounds of expert consultations using Delphi technique. Subsequently, a historical control study was conducted to evaluate the plan's effectiveness. A total of 17 658 patients with indwelling urinary catheter in inpatient departments from January to December 2021 comprised the control group. These patients received standard nursing measures for CAUTI. Another 18 753 patients with indwelling urinary catheters in the inpatient departments from January to December 2022 comprised the intervention group, underwent the precision management scheme based on the best available evidence, to enhance CAUTI prevention. The incidence and SIR of CAUTI, the average duration of indwelling urinary catheter for each patient, and the compliance rate on hand hygiene protocols for medical staff were compared between the 2 groups.
resultsCompared with the control group, the incidence of CAUTI in the intervention group was significantly decreased (0.48‰ vs 1.12‰, χ
conclusionsThe implementation of the precision management plan for reducing CAUTI based on a summary of the best available evidence on CAUTI prevention and control in patients with indwelling urinary catheters has found to be effective. This approach significantly reduces the incidence of CAUTI, reduces the average duration of indwelling urinary catheter, and enhances hand hygiene compliance among medical staff. It provides a scientific and efficient strategy for preventing and controlling CAUTI in the hospital, ultimately saving patients from unnecessary medical expense.
