Delphi Questionnaire

Delphi Questionnaire: Experts will be asked to rate the importance of each item for ECPR for OHCA using the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and evaluation scale from 1 (strongly disagree) to 9 (strongly agree). Statements will be classified as strong agreement (median score 7-9), neither agree or disagree (median score 4-6), or strongly disagree (median score 1-3). Panel members were also provided an "Unable to Score" response to use if they did not feel comfortable rating any specific domain. Recipients will be asked to recommend any wording/phrasing changes and to suggest any additional items for inclusion.
