Machine Alarm Fatigue among Hemodialysis Nurses in 29 Tertiary Hospitals.
Article in Applied clinical informatics, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
objectivesTo understand the status quo and related influencing factors of machine alarm fatigue of hemodialysis nurses in tertiary hospitals in Liaoning Province.
methodsThis cross-sectional study employed convenience sampling to select 460 nurses from 29 tertiary hospitals in Liaoning Province, who are involved in hemodialysis care. Surveys were conducted using the General Information Questionnaire, Alarm Fatigue Scale, National Aeronautics and Space Administration Task Load Index, and Maslach Burnout Inventory Scale.
resultsThe overall machine alarm fatigue score for 460 hemodialysis nurses from 29 tertiary hospitals in Liaoning Province was 17.04 ± 3.21, indicating a moderate level. The multiple linear regression analysis shows that years of experience in hemodialysis nursing, the number of patients managed per shift, whether specialized nursing training has been received, self-reported health status, emotional exhaustion, and workload have statistically significant associations with alarm fatigue among hemodialysis nurses (
conclusionThis study indicates that certain demographic factors, workload, and occupational burnout are associated with machine alarm fatigue among hemodialysis nurses. Therefore, hemodialysis-related managers should establish a Machine Alarm Management System, implement Personalized Thresholds and Delayed Alarms, ensure reasonable staffing arrangements, improve compassion fatigue, and enhance anticipatory care. Our findings have implications for improving the health and well-being of hemodialysis nurses, providing a conducive environment for professional training in hemodialysis, and ultimately addressing the current situation of machine alarm fatigue among hemodialysis nurses.
