Current Concepts and Advances in Respiratory and Emergency Medicine

Dear Colleagues,

The objective of this Special Issue is to present cutting-edge research papers and review articles that delve into recent advancements in respiratory diseases and emergency medicine. Specifically, we seek submissions addressing a broad spectrum of topics, including, but not limited to obstructive, restrictive, vascular and infectious respiratory diseases, as well as emergency medicine, acute critical care, disaster medicine and related areas within both experimental and clinical research in respiratory and emergency medicine. The scope of interest extends to the following focal points:

• Respiratory failure;
• Non-invasive ventilation;
• Nasal high-flow therapy;
• Mechanical ventilation;
• COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease);
• Asthma;
• Lung infections (e.g., COVID-19);
• Pharmacology;
• Cardiopulmonary resuscitation;
• Toxicology;
• Airway management;
• Ultrasound applications in respiratory and emergency medicine.

We enthusiastically invite original, high-quality contributions that have not been previously published and are not presently under review by any other journal. Submissions should offer valuable insights and contribute to the ongoing discourse in the field of respiratory and emergency medicine.
