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

Telemedicine has seen widespread adoption during the COVID-19 pandemic. The implementation of telemedicine projects can be complex, with over 75% of telemedicine initiatives failing in the implementation phase. Health organizations that want to adopt telemedicine as part of their healthcare delivery programs struggle to plan and implement sustainable and scalable initiatives effectively. This paper presents the Telemedicine Program Design Canvas-a tool to guide health organizations in planning telemedicine interventions and drive intervention success. It was developed and validated through six workshops with users and stakeholders of telemedicine. Based on the workshops and the lessons learned from the subsequent interventions of these projects, we identified the 14 key elements that must be addressed while planning and implementing a telemedicine project. We organized these into a simple visual tool that health organizations could use. The 14 elements include the problem, ecosystem, patients, patient journey, patient engagement and trust, providers, provider training, provider engagement, channels, technology, medicines and diagnostics, desired outcomes, costs and revenues. The tool was then tested and validated by applying it with a new group of six telemedicine projects. Overall, the perspectives of 108 users and stakeholders of telemedicine projects, including organizational leadership, doctors, nurses, midwives, community health workers, patients, policymakers, technologists, legal and finance experts, were included in the development of the tool. The Telemedicine Program Design Canvas provides a structured and straightforward method for the rapid prototyping and holistic planning of telemedicine interventions.
