ClinConnect Summary
This clinical trial is studying how intensive care physicians currently perform the apnoea test for patients who are suspected of being brain dead. The apnoea test helps determine if a person has lost all brain function and is a critical step in confirming brain death. The researchers want to gather information from doctors in intensive care units about their practices and experiences with this important test.
To participate in this study, doctors who work in intensive care units will be asked to complete a survey. There are no specific age or gender requirements for the doctors, but they must be actively working in these units. This trial is not yet recruiting participants, so it's still in the planning stages. By collecting this information, the study aims to improve the understanding and application of the apnoea test, which could ultimately help in making more informed decisions about patient care in these challenging situations.
