Detailed Description:
An observational, cross-sectional, web-based questionnaire survey, with multi-centre involvement across hospitals in the South Asia and middle-east region. The questionnaire consists of two sections. Section one obtains information from participants regarding communication and visiting practices in ICU during pre-COVID-19 era, and the Section two obtains information regarding the policy changes if any during the COVID-19 pandemic in regards to safety of healthcare workers (HCWs) and public.
In order to obtain the largest representation of South Asia and Middle East ICUs, a network of research doctors as facilitators from each country is created. The role of the facilitators is to contact and recruit adult ICUs within their country. Each facilitator contacts the hospitals (public and private), creating a network of collaborating doctors/nurses (participants) from those hospitals who expressed their willingness to participate.
Data collection: a web based Google Forms with online access will be used Only one entry per ICU will be collected during the study. Statistic analysis: a descriptive analysis is planned for the general characteristics of the participating units and the study population.
