It's All About Our Patients

Helping You Make The Best recovery Possible

Patient & Public Involvement

We have a patient representative working with us in UKCCRG and we want to ensure the research we conduct reflects the needs of those who it potentially affects. Our research priorities are informed by patient and public needs, including the James Lind Alliance research prioritisation exercise. It is particularly important to involve patients and public in the design of all our research, because critical care research presents unique challenges in terms of consent and working with very seriously ill people.

Throughout 2019, we are working with the National Institute of Health Research (NIHR), the University of Liverpool and the Intensive Care Society to produce some information about what critical care research involves, for patients and the public. We hope to share this soon.

If you’d like to get involved in research, there are a few ways you can do this:

National Institute for Health Research

NIHR - Critical Care

The NIHR, which is the research arm of the NHS, is not specific to critical care research but leads patient and public involvement and engagement in research across the UK.

ICU Steps

The Intensive Care Patient Support Charity

ICU Steps, a charity to support patients and family in (and after) intensive care have information about getting involved in research, and provide support to researchers by reviewing research ideas and proposals.

Intensive Care Society

Patients & Relatives Committee

The Intensive Care Society have a patients and relatives committee, that does review research, and information about getting involved in research.
