Investigating the impact of a multicomponent positive participatory organisational intervention on burnout in New Zealand emergency department staff: a prospective, multisite, before and after, mixed methods study.

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
introductionThe well-being of healthcare workers (HCWs) is critical to providing excellent care. Recent evidence concerns the well-being of emergency department (ED) HCWs in New Zealand, with high levels of burnout found in a 2020 survey. This threat to providing high-quality acute care warrants improvement interventions. The causes of burnout are complex and multifactorial, the solutions are not straightforward. METHODS AND ANALYSIS: A prospective, multisite, before and after, mixed methods study assessing a multicomponent intervention, adaptable to local context, that targets three organisation levels (the individual, the group and the system levels) and meaningfully involves frontline HCWs may reduce HCW burnout and improve HCW well-being. Individual HCWs will choose from three individual-level psychological interventions and participate in those most appropriate for them. Local champions will decide which group-level intervention their ED will use. The system-level intervention will build capacity and capability for quality improvement (QI) with QI training and the establishment of a Quality Improvement Learning System. This system-level intervention has several important features that may ultimately empower HCWs to contribute to improving the quality of ED healthcare.We will enrol nine EDs, from which there will be at least 900 HCW participants. EDs will be enrolled in three waves from March 2023 to April 2024, with interventions taking place in each ED over 12 months.Methods of assessment will include baseline and repeat survey measures of burnout and well-being. Process evaluation at each ED will provide details of context, the intervention and the fidelity of the implementation. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION: Ethics committee approval was provided, with locality approval at each site.Individual site feedback will be provided to each ED and executive leadership. Dissemination of findings will be through publication in peer-reviewed journals, presentation at national and international scientific meetings and through national healthcare quality bodies. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER: Australia New Zealand Clinical Trials Registry (ACTRN12623000342617).
