1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundA clear and precise definition of the "intended use" in developing new medical devices can determine the success of entering the healthcare market. For this, practical collaboration between the clinical and engineering experts is necessary, and an appropriate tool is required for effective information collection and decision-making in the process.

methodsThe Korean Academy of Medical Sciences, in cooperation with the Korean Medical Device Development Fund, implemented the Healthcare Experts' Advisory Unit and Support (HAUS) program to match advisory clinical experts in medical device development projects. Three and five collaborative academic conferences were held in 2022 and 2023 to raise awareness of the HAUS program. In the consultation meeting, checklists were used to facilitate communications and satisfaction surveys were conducted afterward. Then, the results of the consultation meetings were compiled to build an integrated document.

resultsThe HAUS program was conducted with a gradually increasing number of consultation sessions from 31 in 2021 to 128 in 2023. The medical device development teams (development teams) expressed a higher level of satisfaction (91.4% to 100%) compared to the advisors (clinical experts) (78.6% to 100%) across the survey items. Based on the experiences and observations of the HAUS consultation meetings, the "Clinical Unmet Needs-based Intended Use Establishment (CLUE) templates" were developed, which were purposes to improve communication efficiency and to support a systematic approach in establishing the intended use. The CLUE process comprises four main stages for processing: Stage 1, Initial Concept; Stage 2, Expert Consultation; Stage 3, Decision-making; and Stage 4, Intended Use.

conclusionThe HAUS program seemed to be helpful for the development teams by providing opinions of clinical experts. And the resultant product, the CLUE templates have been proposed to facilitate collaboration between the development teams and the advisors and to define robust clinical intended use.
