Digital Adoption in Paramedicine: A Scoping Review Protocol.
Article in HRB open research, 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: Since the late 1980s there's been a growing body of knowledge that applies behavioural and cognitive theories to understanding how people accept new technologies. However, a paradox exists between studies demonstrating the many benefits of Digital Systems in Healthcare and the volume of literature detailing end-user clinician acceptance issues. The problems encountered when designing, developing, and operating complex technologies are not limited to technical or engineering issues. Technology implemented in organizations does not stand alone but is part of a broader socio-technical system, spanning divergent groups of people, each with their own cultural dynamics and distinct ways of working. Paramedics have personality traits that may be advantageous in their career, but research is needed to determine how these affect their ability to accept new technologies. Methods: This scoping review will be conducted according to Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) guidelines has been registered with the Open Science Foundation (OSF). Electronic searches for relevant publications will be conducted in MEDLINE, PubMed, Scopus, CINHAL, IEEE, ACM, PsycINFO, Web of Science. Global English language literature related to digital acceptance in Emergency Medical Services after 2004 will be included. Results: The process of extraction, analysis, and presentation will be conducted using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-ScR). Conclusions: This scoping review will collect meta-data on Behavioural, Cognitive, and Environmental factors common to the dominant prevailing digital acceptance theories to determine if any would be effective in explaining the experience of implementing technology with Paramedics and Emergency Medical Technicians (EMTs) working in Emergency Medical Services.
