Research
The Scottish Intensive Care Society Audit Group (SICSAG) welcomes opportunities to collaborate with colleagues to further understanding of Intensive Care.
If you are interested in using SICSAG data for research purposes, please access the:
- Scottish National Audit Programme Information Request Process (external website), which explains how to select the relevant application form to submit, and the release of data process.
Please return completed forms to the Scottish National Audit Programme mailbox: phs.snap@phs.scot for consideration.
We are happy to provide appropriate colleagues in each hospital with more detailed Management Information data from the audit to help manage patients at your site. Please contact phs.sicsag@phs.scot in the first instance.
You must submit your application for data in plenty of time for the steering group individuals to review before it is discussed at the meeting. Cut off dates for applications are below;
| Final date for Information Request Submission | To be discussed for approval at steering group meeting; |
| 31st December | February |
| 30th April | June |
| 30th September | November |
The exact dates of the steering group vary slightly each year but are always within the months listed above, and usually within the first few weeks. Following the steering group meeting you will hear the outcome of the discussion, and if your request has been approved.
