To promote the use of quality indicators an exploration of the barriers to and facilitating factors for their implementation among healthcare professionals and managers of intensive care units ICUs is advocated. Methods All intensivists ICU nurses and managers n 142 working at 54 Dutch ICUs who participated in training sessions to support future implementation of quality indicators completed a questionnaire on perceived barriers and facilitators. Three types of barriers related to knowledge attitude and behaviour were assessed using a five-point Likert scale 1 strongly disagree to 5 strongly agree . Results Behaviour-related barriers such as time constraints were most prominent Mean Score MS followed by barriers related to knowledge and attitude MS MS respectively . Type of profession age and type of hospital were related to knowledge and behaviour. The facilitating factor perceived as most important by intensivists was administrative support MS p for nurses it was education MS p and for managers it was receiving feedback MS p .
