Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
There is growing number of scientific data confirming the role of inter-organ relations in critical illness. The more we know about this interesting between-organ crosstalk, the more personalized monitoring and therapy can be applied to the patients in need who are hospitalized in intensive care units. Now we are aware of the fact that no single injury of the central nervous system exists without its multidimensional impact on the heart, lungs, kidneys, or gut. The same theory may be extrapolated on the understanding of the role of acute lung injury or acute heart failure. The is ongoing debate how frequent is this type of interference, what is its extent inside the body and what sequelae it may generate, also in the follow-up observation. Moreover, patients in the perioperative period, who are at the highest risk of postoperative complications due to persistent significant abnormalities in their homeostasis, may also benefit from implementation of the goal-directed therapy, basing on their inter-organ crosstalk.
Therefore, I would invite you to participate in this interesting scientific project. If your study relates to this interesting issue, feel free to submit a report, preferably original, describing current knowledge and future directives. I hope that this Special Issue will help anesthetists and intensivists to improve perioperative and intensive care in the future.
