The Preventive Effect of the FOCUS-PDCA Management Mode on Deep Vein Thrombosis in Elderly Patients Following Orthopedic Surgery.
Article in Journal of musculoskeletal & neuronal interactions, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
objectivesTo explore the preventive effect of the FOCUS-PDCA management model on deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in elderly orthopedic patients after surgery.
methodsA total of 229 elderly patients who underwent orthopedic surgery in our hospital between January 2021 and December 2023 were divided into two groups: the control group (n=104) and the intervention group (n=125), based on their admission order. The control group received routine intervention, while the intervention group was treated with the FOCUS-PDCA model. Coagulation function, DVT risk symptoms, incidence of DVT, intervention quality, and patient satisfaction were compared between the two groups.
resultsAfter the intervention, the PT and APTT/s levels in the intervention group were significantly better than those in the control group, while the Fibrinogen (FIB) level was significantly lower (P < 0.05). The DVT risk symptoms and incidence of DVT were also lower in the intervention group (P < 0.05). Additionally, the intervention quality and patient satisfaction were higher in the intervention group compared to the control group (P < 0.05).
conclusionsThe FOCUS-PDCA management model improves coagulation function and reduces the incidence of deep vein thrombosis in elderly orthopedic patients after surgery.
