Promoting Effective Pain Assessment: A Quality Improvement Project.
Article in Clinical journal of oncology nursing, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundPain management is a major healthcare concern, particularly for patients with cancer. About 51.6 million American adults experience chronic pain, with 17.1 million experiencing high-impact chronic pain. The staff nurses on the surgical oncology unit of a large community hospital did not fully adhere to updated evidence-based practice guidelines for pain management.
objectivesThe purpose of this quality improvement project was to improve pain assessment practices on the surgical oncology unit of a 471-bed hospital.
methodsForty-nine nurses participated in this quality improvement project implemented across a three-month period. The intervention consisted of pre- and post-tests, two identical educational training sessions offered at different times for scheduling flexibility, interviews, and chart audits. The pre-/post-test design evaluated nurses' knowledge of pain assessment before and after the intervention.
findingsThis project found that expanding nurses' knowledge about pain assessment (t = 8.03, p < 0.001) resulted in increased adherence to national standards for pain management, including better charting practices. The pain assessment documentation rate increased from 18% to 29%.
