Summary

Researchers are running an international Delphi study to build agreement on what 'low-resource setting' means in acute and critical care. Between 40 and 50 panelists from all inhabited continents, including people from low-resource settings and patient representatives, rate proposed statements over several anonymous rounds. The goal is a practical framework that describes resource limits across countries and within them, and to decide whether the term itself should stay or change.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to
If the panel reaches agreement, researchers could gain a shared definition of low-resource settings, which may make studies easier to compare and help tailor care to local conditions.
What could go wrong
Consensus among experts does not guarantee that the definition will fit every hospital or country, and the panel's views may not reflect all frontline realities. The framework may need testing before it changes how research is done.
