دانلود کتاب اصول مراقبت های ویژه – دانش ضروری عملی برای تازه واردان به ICU

Since its dawn in Blegdams Hospital in Copenhagen during the polio pandemic in 1952, ICM specialists have been helping individuals to survive critical illness. Now­adays, the development of many areas of healthcare is reliant on intensive care services, and the recent pandemic fostered further developments in this field. ICM is a multidisciplinary branch of medicine. There are different educational pathways to become an intensivist: in some countries (Spain, Switzerland, the UK), ICM is a primary specialty, whilst in most others ICM is a supra-specialty to different base specialties (anaesthesia, internal medicine, respiratory medicine, cardiology, neu­rology, nephrology, surgery, etc.). Invariably, these specialties include a degree of exposure to intensive care through specialised training pathways. In turn, there has been an increasing number of trainees who train and work in ICUs every year either at the start of the pathway to become an intensivist or as part of training in different specialties. The educational needs of these doctors-in-training are similar across Europe, but their training is different. Only a minority of hospitals use stan­dardised induction courses tailored to the educational needs of doctors on their first placement in ICU.

The European Society of Intensive Care Medicine (ESICM) in close collaboration with national ICM societies contributes significantly to the advancement of knowl­edge in ICM. This was achieved by the promotion of the highest standards of multi­disciplinary care of critically ill patients and their families through education, research, and professional development. The ESICM Academy and Master Classes offer the highest standard of education in ICM. The society also supervises summa­tive assessment of ICM competences in the European Diploma in Intensive Care (EDIC) examination. Yet, a standardised induction course was missing in this rich educational landscape and ICF is an initiative aiming to fill this gap.

ICF is a standardised face-to-face course, which includes case-based scenarios, interactive workshops, and simulations that have been carefully prepared and stan­dardised by ESICM expert to be delivered locally in local languages by ESICM-trained and certified faculty members. The format was chosen to allow enough flexibility to tailor the training according to local practices, SOPs, and customs, whilst on the other hand embedding the principles of current evidence-based prac­tices in the standardised content. Before coming to the face-to-face course, trainees are required to refresh their basic knowledge, which is covered in this book.
