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

backgroundThe quality of hospital care and patient experience are pillars of healthcare delivery. Nursing leadership visits have emerged as a management strategy to monitor and enhance these aspects in real time. The objective of this study was to evaluate nursing leadership visits as an instrument for measuring the quality of hospital care provided in a philanthropic tertiary hospital in São Paulo, Brazil.

methodsThis retrospective study analyzed data from Nursing Leadership Visits conducted from July 2023 to December 2024. Initially, the institutional database contained approximately 8,500 records. A total of 7,707 eligible Nursing Leadership Visits were included, excluding visits performed by nurses not in leadership positions. Data were summarized using absolute and relative frequencies (%), in addition to descriptive statistics (mean, standard deviation, median, minimum, and maximum) for Likert scale variables. Patients were classified as promoters (score 9 or 10), neutrals (score 7 or 8), or distractors (score 0 to 6) on the basis of the net promoter score. No inferential analyses were performed.

resultsA total of 7,707 eligible Nursing Leadership Visits were analyzed. The average net promoter score calculated from these visits was 95.6%, with 97.07% of patients classified as promoters, 2.78% as neutrals, and 0.16% as distractors. The average process and environment compliance rate was 97.6%. Nursing management interventions were required in 1,293 (16.78%) of the visits, with 767 (59.32%) of them being resolved during the visit itself. The analysis of patient experience dimensions demonstrated that, while high scores predominated, the instrument was capable of identifying areas for improvement, especially in the evaluations of neutral and distractive patients.

conclusionThe reformulated Nursing Leadership Visit is an effective and indispensable instrument for managing the quality of hospital care. Its implementation fostered an evidence-based management approach, facilitating strategic decision-making and contributing to the establishment of a culture of continuous improvement through immediate intervention and a focus on real-time patient experience.
