Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Cardiovascular and neurological emergencies represent a vast public health problem, being a leading cause of death in the world. In addition, nonfatal events lead to disabilities and disability-adjusted life years, representing a major healthcare concern. Novel therapeutic approaches have been introduced in recent decades, while newer ones are continuously conceived and tested. Increasing knowledge and understanding of the different emergency conditions, also known as “Resuscitation Science”, have led to the development of new successful therapies and novel tools to characterize these clinical conditions and provide better care to patients. Resuscitation is a relatively modern science that has emerged only during the latter half of the 20th century, although its roots extend back in the centuries. Advances in Resuscitation Science have improved the survival rate of cardiac arrest and other emergencies, and therefore, a dedicated Special Issue is needed to provide new evidence paving the way toward a better comprehension of pathophysiology, mechanisms, and management of emergency conditions.
This Special Issue of the Journal of Clinical Medicine on “Resuscitation Sciences and Emergencies” is launched by the Italian Resuscitation Council, a non-profit scientific organization with the primary aim to improve and spread resuscitation culture and emergency medical system organization in Italy and Europe. The Special Issue aims to collect brilliant contributions from worldwide experts in the field of Resuscitation and Emergency. Thus, we invite investigators to contribute with original research articles as well as review articles that will stimulate the continuing efforts to understand mechanisms accounting for outcomes of cardiovascular and neurological emergencies; the development of new interventional strategies (surgical and/or medical) to improve survival with good functional recovery; new approaches for evaluation and prediction of outcome; innovation and technology procurement to improve resuscitation and post-resuscitation care; better emergency medical system organization, and deployment capabilities; and different training methodologies.
Important note: Within the dissemination goals of the European Union’s H2020 Coordination & Support Action funded “iProcureSecurity” project (Grant Agreement No 833291), the Italian Resuscitation Council will cover the article processing charge (APC) for 10 selected manuscripts; in addition, IRC members can receive a 25% APC discount.
