Epub 2026 Sep 16.ABSTRACTCritical care pharmacists (CCPs) are essential members of the intensive care unit team who provide comprehensive medication management to improve patient outcomes, safety, and cost efficiency. This article highlights barriers to optimal integration of CCPs within multidisciplinary teams as well as opportunities to address them. Persistent barriers include financial, workforce, data, interprofessional, and regulatory. Strategies to address these gaps may involve standardized metrics, innovative staffing models, and research to strengthen evidence-based implementation. Metrics should include all members of the Stakeholder Triad and should include a mix of workload metrics, safety and efficacy metrics, and work-design metrics.PMID:43003541 | DOI:10.1016/j.ccc.2026.07.008
