## Description

ICU Trials by ClinCalc is a quick pocket reference for both novice and seasoned critical care clinicians. It does not replace full manuscripts; instead it serves as a fast reference and learning tool for landmark ICU trials across specialties. Each entry includes a one-liner and key points—such as inclusion/exclusion criteria, treatment protocols, pivotal endpoints, key findings, and expert commentary on subgroup analyses or limitations.

A Share Trial feature lets you send PubMed links with a concise summary to colleagues. The database currently features 150+ landmark trials across ARDS, cardiac arrest, DVT/PE, delirium, glycemic control, heart failure, hemorrhage, meningitis, nephroprotection, nutrition, pneumonia, sedation, seizures, sepsis/shock, spinal cord injury, stroke, subarachnoid hemorrhage, and more with ongoing additions. Created and maintained by Sean P. Kane, PharmD, BCPS, with clinical pharmacology and IT background.
