The Fifth Neurocritical Care Research Network (NCRN) Conference held in Boca Raton, Florida, in September of 2018 was devoted to challenging the current status quo and examining the role of the Neurocritical Care Society (NCS) in driving the science and research of neurocritical care. The aim of this in-person meeting was to set the agenda for the NCS's Neurocritical Care Research Central, which is the overall research arm of the society. Prior to the meeting, all 103 participants received educational content (book and seminar) on the 'Blue Ocean Strategy,' a concept from the business world which aims to identify undiscovered and uncontested market space, and to brainstorm innovative ideas and methods with which to address current challenges in neurocritical care research. Three five-member working groups met at least four times by teleconference prior to the in-person meeting to prepare answers to a set of questions using the Blue Ocean Strategy concept as a platform. At the Fifth NCRN Conference, these groups presented to a five-member jury and all attendees for open discussion. The jury then developed a set of recommendations for NCS to consider in order to move neurocritical care research forward. We have summarized the topics discussed at the conference and put forward recommendations for the future direction of the NCRN and neurocritical care research in general.
2018 年 9 月，第五届神经危重症研究网络（NCRN）会议在佛罗里达州博卡拉顿举行，会议旨在挑战当前现状，并审视神经危重症学会（NCS）在推动神经危重症研究方面的作用。本次现场会议旨在为 NCS 的神经危重症研究中心设定议程，该中心是该学会的整体研究部门。在会议之前，所有 103 名参与者都收到了关于“蓝海战略”的教育内容（书籍和研讨会），这是一个来自商业世界的概念，旨在确定未被发现和无竞争的市场空间，并集思广益，提出创新的想法和方法来解决神经危重症研究中的当前挑战。三个五人工作组在现场会议之前至少通过电话会议进行了四次会议，以使用蓝海战略概念作为平台来回答一组问题。在第五届 NCRN 会议上，这些小组向五名评审员和所有与会者进行了公开讨论。评审团随后提出了一系列建议，供 NCS 考虑，以推动神经危重症研究向前发展。我们总结了会议讨论的主题，并为 NCRN 的未来方向以及神经危重症研究的一般方向提出了建议。
