Decreasing respiratory device-related pressure injuries in the NICU using 3D printed barrier templates.
Article in Journal of perinatology : official journal of the California Perinatal Association, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
objectiveUse of non-invasive ventilation (NIV) in very low birthweight infants to decrease the incidence of bronchopulmonary dysplasia can also lead to pressure injuries (PI) caused by the respiratory device interface. We aimed to decrease our incidence of PIs related to the mask/prongs interface used for NIV (PI-NIV). STUDY
designWe identified correct use of barriers and appropriate interface fit as key targets for intervention. Over several PDSA cycles, we developed custom 3D printed barrier templates to allow for barriers to be cut at the bedside and created concise educational documents to assist with interface fitting and troubleshooting.
resultsThe incidence of all PI-NIV decreased from 5.64 to 2.27 per 1000 NIV patient-days and the incidence of reportable (stage 3-4 and unstageable) PI-NIV decreased from 1.13 to 0 per 1000 NIV patient-days during the study period.
conclusionsWith appropriate barrier usage and targeted education, the risk of PI-NIV can be minimized.
