Impact of a Postextubation Care Bundle on Physiological Parameters Among Extubated Patients: A Quasi-Experimental Pilot Study.
Article in Journal of pharmacy & bioallied sciences. 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: Extubation is a critical milestone in intensive care recovery; however, extubated patients frequently experience impaired swallowing, respiratory dysfunction, and muscle weakness, increasing morbidity and delaying rehabilitation. Structured postextubation interventions addressing these impairments remain underutilized in routine ICU care. Aim: To evaluate the effectiveness of a structured postextubation care bundle on physiological parameters among extubated patients. Methods: A quasi-experimental pretest-post-test control group design was adopted in a tertiary care hospital in Erode. A total of 150 extubated patients were allocated to experimental ( Results: The experimental group demonstrated significantly greater improvement in swallowing function (mean increase 42%), respiratory function (48%), and muscle strength (67%) compared to the control group (13, 27, and 24%, respectively). Unpaired t-tests showed highly significant differences between groups across all physiological parameters ( Conclusion: The postextubation care bundle was highly effective in improving physiological recovery among extubated patients and can be safely integrated into routine ICU nursing practice.
