Phantom study of augmented reality framework to assist epicardial punctures.

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
Purpose: The objective of this study is to evaluate the accuracy of an augmented reality (AR) system in improving guidance, accuracy, and visualization during the subxiphoidal approach for epicardial ablation. Approach: An AR application was developed to project real-time needle trajectories and patient-specific 3D organs using the Hololens 2. Additionally, needle tracking was implemented to offer real-time feedback to the operator, facilitating needle navigation. The AR application was evaluated through three different experiments: examining overlay accuracy, assessing puncture accuracy, and performing pre-clinical evaluations on a phantom. Results: The results of the overlay accuracy assessment for the AR system yielded Conclusions: Overall, the AR platform has the potential to enhance the accuracy of percutaneous epicardial access for mapping and ablation of cardiac arrhythmias, thereby reducing complications and improving patient outcomes. The significance of this study lies in the potential of AR guidance to enhance the accuracy and safety of percutaneous epicardial access.
