Summary

Burnout among healthcare professionals in intensive care units (ICUs) is a prevalent concern with significant implications for both staff well-being and patient care outcomes. This protocol outlines a cluster randomized controlled trial designed to evaluate the effectiveness of the "Hello Bundle" intervention in reducing burnout among ICU healthcare professionals. The intervention comprises of various components aimed at fostering a positive and supportive work environment, including the distribution of Hello Campaign Posters, Email Reminders, Morning Huddles, Hello Jars, and Lead by Example initiatives. A hello board updated daily will be made available in each ICU. The trial will involve 146 participating centers affiliated with the ESICM, randomly assigned to intervention and control groups. Each center will have to include at least 50 HCP. Data will be collected from healthcare professionals at baseline, during the intervention period, and at follow-up, focusing on the prevalence of burnout, satisfaction with care, professional's intent to leave the ICU, and perceptions of the ethical climate. Statistical analysis will compare outcomes between intervention and control groups, aiming to demonstrate a reduction in the prevalence of burnout from 40% to 30% with an intra-class coefficient of 0.3 and a statistical power of 90%. This trial holds the potential to provide valuable insights into effective strategies for addressing burnout in ICU settings, ultimately benefiting both staff and patients.
