Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The early diagnosis of severe infections, such as bacteremia or severe respiratory infections, is very important, and can save patients’ lives. A number of new diagnostical methods have been developed in recent years. Some of them have great potential to be used in ICUs.

Many studies on antimicrobial management in ICUs have been performed in recent years. Rational antibiotic treatment is essential to save patients’ lives and avoid antibiotic resistance. There are many studies that can be carried out in the field.

Monitoring severe infections and antimicrobial management in ICUs is also a very important topic that can provide us with valuable information to help us better understand infections and save lives.
