Outcome

El uso y la enseñanza del modelo PICO están muy extendidos en el ámbito de la atención sanitaria basada en la evidencia para formular preguntas y estrategias de búsqueda y para caracterizar estudios o metanálisis clínicos. PICO son las siglas en inglés de cuatro posibles componentes de una pregunta de investigación: paciente, población o problema; intervención; comparación; desenlace (outcome).

Para saber más sobre el uso del modelo PICO, puede consultar el Manual Cochrane.

*The basis for the assumed risk (e.g. the median control group risk across studies) is provided in footnotes. The corresponding risk (and its 95% confidence interval) is based on the assumed risk in the comparison group and the relative effect of the intervention (and its 95% CI).
CI: Confidence interval; RR: Risk ratio;

GRADE Working Group grades of evidence
High quality: Further research is very unlikely to change our confidence in the estimate of effect.
Moderate quality: Further research is likely to have an important impact on our confidence in the estimate of effect and may change the estimate.
Low quality: Further research is very likely to have an important impact on our confidence in the estimate of effect and is likely to change the estimate.
Very low quality: We are very uncertain about the estimate.

1 The most studies have mixed populations (with different levels of severity and co‐morbidities).
2 Was included only two quasi‐randomised trials, but sensitivity analysis with quasi‐randomised studies exclusion (Bersten 1991; Weitz 2007), showed the results to remain statistically significant. L'Her 2004 was interrupted early due to a greater number in deaths and complications in the control group.
3 Although there is less 300 events in meta‐analysis, when add Gray's study that analysed the mortality in 30 days, our meta‐analysis of hospital mortality show that these study reinforce the favourable use of NPPV in ACPE with more 300 events.
4 Was included only two quasi‐randomised trials, but sensitivity analysis with quasi‐randomised studies exclusion (Bersten 1991; Weitz 2007), showed the results to remain statistically significant. Park 2004 was interrupted early due to a difference in the frequency of intubations. Lin 1991 lost 35 of the 80 (44%) randomised patients for having fulfilled the criteria of exclusion or having presented failures on the received intervention.
5 There is less 300 events in meta‐analysis.
6 Although two studies (Sharon 2000; Thys 2002) were interrupted early due to the incidence of acute myocardial infarction and the second due to a batch of failures of treatment and clinical decline.
7 Was included one quasi‐randomised trial (Weitz 2007). Lin 1991 lost 35 of the 80 (44%) randomised patients for having fulfilled the criteria of exclusion or having presented failures on the received intervention.
8 Was included two quasi‐randomised trials (Bersten 1991; Weitz 2007). L'Her 2004 was interrupted early due to a greater number in deaths and complications in the control group and not present the results in relation to autonomy for the activities of daily living, patient comfort and some planned adverse effects to be observed. Lin 1991 lost 35 of the 80 (44%) randomised patients for having fulfilled the criteria of exclusion or having presented failures on the received intervention. Thys 2002 was interrupted early due to a batch of failures of treatment and clinical decline.
9 The grouping of the studies demonstrated relevant heterogeneity which was eliminated with the exclusion of Gray 2008 study, but we have not found plausible justification for this result
