Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The Journal of Personalized Medicine has launched a Special Issue on “Personalized Medicine in the ICU—2nd Edition”.
Critical care medicine deals with the most vulnerable patients—those who are critically ill. Pathophysiologic mechanisms of disease and the responses to those diseases, monitoring issues, and individualized treatment approaches, especially those concerning dosing, are distinct when compared to regular patients, as well as varying considerably between critical care patients. Critical care departments hospitalize patients with a wide diversity of diseases, all of which require different management approaches (neurosurgical, thoracic-surgical, general surgical, medical, COVID-19 patients).
Patients present with great variations in clinical presentation and often warrant personalization of treatments to fit their needs.
In this Special Issue, we encourage submissions concerning critically ill patients, covering the whole spectrum of patients admitted to the intensive care unit: airway disease, ventilatory management, acute respiratory failure, hemodynamics, acute cardiomyopathies, point of care ultrasonography, acute kidney injury, renal replacement therapies, nutrition, sepsis management, and antibiotics.
In relation to this, we are calling for review articles and original contributions covering all aspects of how personalized medicine can improve critically ill patients’ management within the ICU.
