Postcardiac Arrest Care Delivery in Pediatric Intensive Care Units: A Plan and Call to Action.
Article in Pediatric quality & safety. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Background: Despite national pediatric postcardiac arrest care (PCAC) guidelines to improve neurological outcomes and survival, there are limited studies describing PCAC delivery in pediatric institutions. This study aimed to describe PCAC delivery in centers belonging to a resuscitation quality collaborative. Methods: An institutional review board-approved REDCap survey was distributed electronically to the lead resuscitation investigator at each institution in the international Pediatric Resuscitation Quality Improvement Collaborative. Data were summarized using descriptive statistics. A chi-square test was used to compare categorical data. Results: Twenty-four of 47 centers (51%) completed the survey. Most respondents (58%) belonged to large centers (>1,000 annual pediatric intensive care unit admissions). Sixty-seven percent of centers reported no specific process to initiate PCAC with the other third employing order sets, paper forms, or institutional guidelines. Common PCAC targets included temperature (96%), age-based blood pressure (88%), and glucose (75%). Most PCAC included electroencephalogram (75%), but neuroimaging was only included at 46% of centers. Duration of PCAC was either tailored to clinical improvement and neurological examination (54%) or time-based (45%). Only 25% of centers reported having a mechanism for evaluating PCAC adherence. Common barriers to effective PCAC implementation included lack of time and limited training opportunities. Conclusions: There is wide variation in PCAC delivery among surveyed pediatric institutions despite national guidelines to standardize and implement PCAC.
