First-line managers' experience of guideline implementation in orthopaedic nursing and rehabilitation: a qualitative study.
Article in BMC health services research, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT04700969 (Onset PrevenTIon of Urinary Retention in Orthopaedic Nursing and Rehabilitation, OPTION - a Knowledge Implementation Study on a Facilitation Strategy for Multi-professional Clinical Champion Teams), which is not on this map.

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.

Abstract
backgroundFirst-line managers have a unique role and potential in encouraging the use of evidence-based clinical practice guidelines (CPGs) and thus serve the provision of safe patient care. In acute and planned hospital care, effective yet safeguarded nursing procedures are a necessity. Little is currently known about how first-line managers engage in supporting the adoption of evidence-based nursing care and about what barriers and enablers there are for implementation of CPGs in the orthopaedic care context. PURPOSE: To investigate first-line managers' experience of clinical practice guideline implementation in orthopaedic care.
methodsThis qualitative interview study included 30 first-line nursing and rehabilitation managers in 17 orthopaedic units in Sweden. A deductive content analysis, with the Ottawa Model of Implementation Leadership as a guide, was employed.
resultsTo the first-line managers, any guideline implementation required them to balance contexts, including their outer context (signified by the upper-level management and decision-makers) and their inner context, including staff and patients in their unit(s). Acting in response to these contexts, the managers described navigating the organization and its terms and conditions; using relations-, change-, and task-oriented leadership, such as involving the staff; motivating the change by emphasizing the patient benefits; and procuring resources, such as time and training. Even though they knew from past experience what worked when implementing CPGs, the first-line managers often encountered barriers within the contexts that hampered successful implementation.
conclusionsAlthough first-line managers know how to effectively implement CPGs, an organization's terms and conditions can limit their opportunities to fully do so. Organizational awareness of what supports and hinders first-line managers to offer implementation leadership can enhance opportunities to alter behaviours and conditions for the benefit of CPG implementation.
