Request to BACCN Researchers
Dear Members
As editors of Nursing in Critical Care, the BACCN’s professional journal, we are keen to ensure the journal is relevant to your practice and providing the latest and most up to date research papers. To enable us to gather intelligence of research and practice developments that are occurring in your Unit we are asking your help.
In addition to understanding the range of research that is being undertaken across the country by and for critical care nurses, we propose to create an opportunity for fellow researchers and practice development leaders to be able to network. We intend to do this by collating the list of relevant research to relevant specialist articles.
Before adding your research to such a list, we would seek your consent to do so (and to provide you with an opportunity to update any material you provide in response to this request). We recognize some commissioned research may have an abstract displayed in other sites. If this is the case, please can you identify a link / web address. If the work is confidential please can you identify it as such but indicate when it is likely that the findings will be published.
Please can you invite any nursing colleague who you know is undertaking research related to the discipline of critical care to return the following information listed below To gather relevant information it would be helpful if you can identify:
- Principal Investigator (contact address) or nominee
