Dear all,

We invite all intensive care practitioners to participate in a Delphi survey to identify barriers and facilitators to successful implementation of cost-effective interventions in intensive care setting. Your opinion is valuable to guide this research.

Purpose of the study: Over the last two decades, the compliance to evidence-based best practice guidelines has been poor. This challenge becomes even more important in intensive care unit (ICU) settings. In the ICUs, life-saving interventions require immense resources and manpower costs. Therefore, best practice and evidence-based guidelines have focused on identifying cost-effective interventions. However, despite a significant healthcare cost burden, there remains a paucity of studies in the literature evaluating poor adoption of proposed measures in ICU settings. Therefore, this Delphi study aims to address this.

Dr Monika Gulati Kansal, MBBS, FCICM 
Asst Prof (Adj) Amit Kansal, FCICM
