Abstract

Aim

The French Intensive Care Society (FICS) offers several grants aimed at promoting research in intensive care. This study aimed to determine the scientific impact of these grants.

Material and Methods

Each recipient of an SRLF award was contacted. An online form was used to determine the status of the project. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to investigate factors associated with scientific output.

Results

Between 2007 and 2019, the FICS awarded 104 grants to 95 recipients for a total amount of 1 572 500 euros. Out of 86 (83%) recipients who answered the survey form, 69 (80%) declared having produced scientific results, either through publication in a peer reviewed journal (54 (63%)) and/or through an abstract presentation in an international congress (52 (60%)). In a multivariate analysis, the only factors associated with the scientific output of a grant was the time elapsed since the funding was received (odds-ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval 1.4 [1.14-1.82] per year, p=0.004).

Conclusion

The FICS contributes to the funding of high quality clinical and experimental research projects, leading to publications in high-impact journals.
