Feasibility of an Intervention to Support Shared Decision-Making for Critically Ill Infants.
Article in The Journal of pediatrics, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to 2 registered trials, which are not on this 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.

Abstract
objectiveTo develop and pilot an intervention to support communication and decision-making for critically ill infants. STUDY
designIn this single-arm, mixed-methods, prospective, feasibility study, we enrolled infants, parents, and clinicians at a single tertiary care center. The Building Rapport, Improving Dialogue, and Growing Empathy intervention contains a values clarification exercise and question prompt list that parents can opt to share with the health care team. Parent and clinician participants completed surveys and semistructured interviews ≥72 hours postintervention. The primary outcome was intervention feasibility, defined as an enrollment rate ≥50% and a complete data collection rate ≥80%. Secondary outcomes included intervention acceptability and preparation for decision-making (Preparedness for Decision-Making Scale, score: 0-100, higher scores indicating higher preparedness). Statistical analyses were descriptive, and interviews were analyzed using a rapid-cycle qualitative approach.
resultsThirty clinicians and 44 parents of 30 infants were enrolled (enrollment rate: 56%; complete data collection rate: 97%). The majority of parents and clinicians endorsed the tool as helpful, would recommend the tool to other parents, and would use the tool in the future. Preparedness for decision-making was high for both mothers (median score = 82, IQR: 70.0-90.0) and fathers (median score = 60, IQR: 38-74). Qualitative analysis of the intervention's impact identified 4 themes: (1) providing a scaffold; (2) validating and affirming experience; (3) preparing for a conversation; and (4) facilitating connection.
conclusionsThe Building Rapport, Improving Dialogue, and Growing Empathy intervention was feasible and acceptable to parents and clinicians. Future work should assess its impact on values-congruent decision-making, therapeutic alliance, and infant outcomes.
