Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Primary research question: Can regular standardized assessment enable needs-based telemedical intervention to improve modifiable structures, processes, and outcome indicators of participating intensive care units (ICUs)?<br>Primary outcome: Number of fulfilled modifiable structure, process, and outcome indicators.<br><br>Timeline for tool development: within 3 months from the start of the study. <br>Timing of tool application: at the start of the respective ICU's participation in the study, every 6 months during the study, and at study completion.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Secondary research questions:<br>1.Can a self-reporting structural assessment tool be developed and continuously optimized to facilitate standardized evaluation of the ICUs?<br>2.Can the structural assessment tool enable standardized data collection on structures, processes, and outcome indicators of participating ICUs?<br>3.Can a feedback tool be developed and continuously optimized to conduct standardized user surveys of telemedical visits?<br>4.Can the regular use of the feedback tool enable standardized assessment of user-friendliness?<br><br>Secondary outcome: Identification of (modifiable) factors of the structural assessment and feedback tools based on the pilot version of the instruments.<br><br>Timeline for tool development: within 3 months from the start of the study. <br>Timing of tool application: at the start of the respective ICU's participation in the study, every 6 months during the study, and at study completion.
