Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The world of emergency medicine is undergoing a major reorganization and is facing new challenges in increasingly crowded hospitals by honing skills for the recognition and treatment of critical conditions of increasingly complex patients. It is necessary to analyze this system and its critical aspects in order to rethink its structure and function. It is necessary to accept that different types of emergencies may need to be managed individually. In this scenario, it will be necessary to design new systems that recognize and treat general acute health situations, as well as those that will become more frequent, such as in instances of unrecognized geriatric health problems. It will also be essential to establish optimal diagnostic and therapeutic pathways for both acute and rare diseases. Some categories of fragile patients deserve specific attention; for example, HIV patients or cancer patients (these patients often need to be treated urgently). This will also lead to drastic changes in the training methods of health professionals, including students, and in the design of emergency departments. In these scenarios, reflections on the legal aspects of accessibility to care can be an interesting starting point of discussion.

I look forward to receiving your contributions.

Dr. Gabriele Savioli
Guest Editor
