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

backgroundBedside boards are used in various healthcare settings to support communication but their additional value in facilitating family-centred care (FCC) in the paediatric intensive care unit (PICU) has not been systematically studied.

aimsTo evaluate the implementation process of a co-created bedside family board (FB) and assess its effectivity and effectiveness to guide FCC six months following its implementation in the PICU. STUDY

designHybrid effectiveness-implementation design type 2, using validated questionnaires, structured observations and self-report surveys complemented by two focus groups and an interview.

resultsValidated questionnaires indicated high acceptability, appropriateness and feasibility of the FB. Qualitative data highlighted the need for ongoing awareness and integration into daily workflows. Effectivity measures showed that the FB accurately reflected child and family needs, although some items of the FB were used inconsistently, and their relevance varied by developmental stage. Effectiveness results demonstrated that the FB facilitated the inclusion of family perspectives in care planning and shared goal setting, thereby promoting FCC. Professionals and families valued the FB for making care more personal, aligning care with the child's preferences and family experiences, guiding family education and supporting care transitions.

conclusionThe FB demonstrated to be a practical and effective tool for enriching FCC in the PICU. It standardises the recording and sharing of child and family needs while allowing personalisation. Embedding the FB into standard workflows, sharing responsibility across the interprofessional team including families, and tailoring it to the child's developmental stage, condition and family context are essential for sustained use. RELEVANCE TO PRACTICE: A FB empowers families, fosters shared understanding of care goals and enriches collaboration in paediatric critical care settings. Successful implementation requires co-creation, contextual tailoring, integration with existing processes and ongoing training to maintain engagement.
