A Pilot Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial to Test the Feasibility, Acceptability, and Usability of iPREPARED; A Mobile Health Technology for Patients and Care Partners.
Article in Delirium communications, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Background: Family participation in the delivery of nonpharmacological measures has shown in past studies to prevent 17-75% of incident delirium. A scalable and sustainable method to partner with family (i.e., care partners) and support their delivery of nonpharmacologic measures is needed. Objectives: To test the feasibility, acceptability, and usability of iPREPARED in a pilot randomized controlled clinical trial (RCT). iPREPARED is a mobile health technology co-designed with patients and care partners containing resources on nonpharmacological interventions to prevent delirium. Methods: Hospitalized adults (≥65 years) with ≥1 delirium risk factor and a care partner (family or friend ≥18yo) willing to participate were enrolled. The primary outcomes were feasibility, acceptability, and usability. Descriptive statistics are reported. Results: In total, 23 dyads completed the study (median age 72 years (IQR 64, 79), 60% male, and 100% Caucasian). Dyads reported that iPREPARED was acceptable, with moderate usability. Recruitment in the emergency department was feasible whereas recruitment once hospitalized and admitted was more difficult. Conclusion: The study design was feasible. iPREPARED was acceptable and usable as an intervention.
