Patient and clinician satisfaction with home parenteral nutrition intestinal failure telemedicine consultations: A survey of clinicians and patients.

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
introductionDespite the widespread use of telemedicine to assess patients with intestinal failure (IF) receiving home parenteral nutrition (HPN), satisfaction with remote consultation methods has not been comprehensively assessed. Here, we assessed patient and clinician attitudes to telephone and video IF consultations.
methodsTelemedicine questionnaires were designed and distributed in paper form to patients with IF receiving HPN under the care of a UK national IF reference center and electronically to IF clinicians in Europe, North America, Australia, and New Zealand.
resultsSeventy-eight patients (53 women and 25 men) and 110 clinicians agreed to complete the questionnaires. Sixty seven percent of patients who had telephone consultations and 50% of patients who had video consultations were satisfied with their consultations. Forty nine percent and 83% of patients who had telephone and video consultations, respectively, felt they were of the same standard as their face-to-face consultations. Despite 60% of clinicians feeling telemedicine training would be useful, 55% of clinicians stated they mostly or always met all of the needs of their patients via telephone consultations, whereas 96% of clinicians felt similarly for video consultations (P = 0.002). A total of 33% and 57% of clinicians felt telephone and video consultations, respectively, were of the same standard as face-to-face consultations (P = 0.004).
conclusionThis study comprehensively assesses attitudes to IF telemedicine consultations. Our data show that a large proportion of patients and clinicians are satisfied with IF telephone and video consultations. However, there is an unmet need amongst clinicians for telemedicine training.
