Surveys

Our members are often involved in research projects which require contributions from members of the whole multi-professional team.

We're glad to be able to support research in intensive care at all levels and often make research opportunities available to our members.

You can find open opportunites to participate below, or can get in touch with our Research team to let us know about yours.

Survey on Environmental Sustainability Practices in Critical Care

Elie Azoulau, ESICM President and Jan de Waele, ESICM President-elect are looking for your views on sustainable critical care in your setting and the results will inform further phases of the ESICM: Environmental Sustainability in ICU.

INTACT-2 (INtravenous Iron and eryThropoietin to treat Anaemia following CriTical care-2)

INTACT-2 is a multicentre randomised controlled trial that is aiming to evaluate the clinical efficacy and cost-effectiveness of intravenous (IV) iron and recombinant erythropoietin (rHuEPO) for treating moderate-severe anaemia (haemoglobin ≤100 g/L) in patients recovering from critical illness.

INTACT-2 was listed as a research priority by the Intensive Care Society’s Research Prioritisation Exercise (June 2022) and is funded by a grant from the NIHR Efficacy and Mechanism Evaluation funding stream.

The study aims to enrol 508 patients across 25 ICUs.

If you would like to know more about the study and/or are interested in participating, please enter your details and those of your NHS hospital on this form.

Developing Person Centred Outcome Measures in End-of-life Care in Critical Care

Developing Person Centred Outcome Measures in End-of-life Care in Critical Care (PEACE-COS) Delphi Study

We are inviting you to take part in a research study that aims to create a core outcome set that should be used in all research studies evaluating end-of-life care in critical care. Participation involved completing two online questionnaires with the option to receive an invitation to be part of a TEAMS video-conference consensus meeting.

We are inviting the following groups to take part:

  • Family members of people of received end-of-life care in critical care
  • Patients who were given a limited chance of survival whilst in critical care
  • Health professionals who have been involved in end-of-life care in critical care
  • Researchers who work in the field of critical care or end-of-life care

Following screening, each questionnaire will take approximately 30 minutes to complete, and it is very important that you can complete both questionnaires.

The first questionnaire is available now, and the second will be sent out in the next few weeks once the participants complete the surveys of the first round.

If you would like to know more information, please visit our study website where you will find the participant information sheets or go direct to start the questionnaire.

Thank you the PEACE-COS study team
