Summary

This study consists of a survey created for intensive care physicians regarding their current practice of the implementation of apnoea test for patients with suspected brain death.

Detailed description

Although the apnoea test is part of nearly all protocols for determining brain death; implementation significantly differs among intensive care physicians according to national-level acts, national society protocols or local protocols. This cross-sectional study is based on an international, web-based questionnaire created for intensive care physicians, consisting of 25 questions in English. The survey will provide a current state of the practice of apnoea testing in patients with suspected brain death. The results can support the determination of future acts to standardize the apnoea test process. The given answers are anonymous. The e-mail address of the respondent is not recorded. Answers are treated solely for scientific purposes.
