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

purposeTo co-design use of the EQ-5D-Y-5L, a generic Paediatric Patient Reported Outcome Measure (P-PROM), in Routine Outpatient Care for Kids (ROCK), maximising its impact on patient-clinician visits.

methodsThis Phase 2 co-design study was guided by the co-design framework for public service design and Double Diamond model. Data collection involved facilitated workshops (building on Phase 1), followed by feedback and optimisation sessions. Participants included service providers (doctors, nurses, allied health and medical record staff), adolescents, and caregivers with lived experience of providing or receiving outpatient care at a tertiary paediatric hospital in Australia.

resultsFive co-design workshops, nine feedback, and two optimisation sessions were conducted with nine service providers, two adolescents, and three caregivers. Co-design participants created resources to introduce EQ-5D-Y-5L as a 'general health tracking questionnaire' and explain its purpose. EQ-5D-Y-5L responses were designed to be displayed by item. A display of results over time was also designed. A patient empowerment approach was taken with regards to flagging specific EQ-5D-Y-5L items for discussion with clinicians, whereby patients or caregivers control which items are flagged. To ensure clinical review and action of EQ-5D-Y-5L responses, resources, including clinician training, clinician decision support tool, and matching patient booklet and resource pathway, were co-designed. Combined, these design elements make up the P-PROM ROCK Program.

conclusionConsumer engagement produced important insights that would've otherwise been missed, ensuring the P-PROM ROCK Program empowers patients. For generic P-PROMs to meaningfully impact patient-clinician visits, supports and resources are required to ensure clinical review and action.
