Device based monitoring in digital care and its impact on hospital service use.
Article in NPJ digital medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
This systematic review examines four themes of device-based remote monitoring (DRM): technology, patient monitoring and support, integration of DRM into clinical care, and patient engagement, and their impact on hospital service use. We included randomized controlled trials (RCTs) until 2024 comparing hospital service use in DRM with usual care. Hospital service use decreased in DRM in 72% of the 116 included RCTs. Non-implantable devices were most commonly used to measure data, but showed a lower decrease in hospital service use than implanted or mobile devices (69% vs 89% and 76%). Providing 24/7 support for patients led to a decrease (81% of the studies). DRM replacing usual care, involving designated healthcare providers, and patient-performed data transmission led to a greater decrease in hospital service use. DRM has the potential to further reduce hospital service use with additional factors such as sufficient support, automated processes, and optimized care redesign.
