Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue of Medicina, entitled "Management of Septic Shock in ICU", aims to provide a comprehensive exploration of the contemporary approaches adopted to address one of the most critical challenges in intensive care. Focused on optimizing patient outcomes, this Issue synthesizes cutting-edge research and clinical insights into a cohesive narrative. Emphasizing early detection, we aim to publish research underscoring the importance of using advanced monitoring techniques for the timely identification of septic shock.
Two central themes of this publication will include antibiotic stewardship and the judicious use of antimicrobials in the face of rising antimicrobial resistance. This Issue will delve into evolving fluid resuscitation strategies and the integration of emerging technologies, showcasing the dynamic nature of septic shock management. Multidisciplinary collaboration will take center stage, reflecting the fact that effective care necessitates a unified effort across diverse healthcare domains.
If successful, this Special Issue will serve as a beacon for healthcare professionals seeking to refine their protocols by offering a nuanced understanding of personalized treatment approaches. By encapsulating key elements such as early diagnosis, antibiotic stewardship, fluid resuscitation, technological integration, and interdisciplinary collaboration, this Issue offers to equip practitioners with a holistic perspective on managing septic shock in an ICU setting. Ultimately, this constitutes a vital resource, contributing to ongoing advancements in critical care medicine.
Authors are welcome to submit research papers, short reports, reviews, systematic reviews, meta-analyses, letters to the editor, and commentary papers.
