Investigation of the optimal method of oxygen administration with simultaneous use of a surgical mask in postoperative patients: a randomized cross-over study.
Article in JA clinical reports, 2024. 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
backgroundFrom the standpoint of infection prevention, anesthesiologists need to simultaneously use a surgical mask and an oxygen mask when administering oxygen to patients. However, there is a lack of scientific evidence to justify this method. We aimed to investigate a suitable method of oxygen administration when using a surgical mask in postoperative patients.
methodsThis was a randomized, single-blind, cross-over study involving 42 patients admitted to the ICU. We compared three methods of oxygen administration: nasal cannula under the surgical mask, oxygen mask under the surgical mask, and oxygen mask above the surgical mask, using a cross-over design. The primary endpoint was partial pressure of arterial oxygen (PaO
resultsPaO
conclusionsThe current standard method of administering oxygen to postoperative patients using an oxygen mask over a surgical mask results in poor oxygenation. Adopting the method of oxygen administration under the surgical mask via an oxygen mask or nasal cannula should be considered instead.
