Abstract
Intensive care units (ICUs) lack both standardized performance indicators to better understand the effectiveness of interventions and uniform platforms to present these indicators. The goal of this study was to identify ICU metrics meaningful to stakeholders to help guide the development of a local visualization dashboard. Individual ICU directors were interviewed to collate their input on metrics important to their units. These qualitative data were used to develop a dashboard draft, after which the authors surveyed 20 stakeholders from different hospital departments for feedback on its content and structure. The varied survey results reinforced the inherent difficulties of adapting previously developed measurement tools while also selecting ICU performance measures that are simultaneously widely accepted yet relevant to local practice. These results also call attention to the importance of interdisciplinary input in quality dashboard development, thereby enabling more successful implementation and utilization for ICU quality improvement.
