In modern medicine the most functional methodologies are taking an increasing importance in spreading informations, rendering it credible while at the same time using reliable data to focus interaction between basic science and clinical medicine. Critical care medicine embraces these needs and more than any other discipline thrives and develops thanks to interdisciplinary contact. APICE 2004 has been organised to provide precise answers to these issues. In particular, considerable emphasis has been given to the reviews regarding the most important aspects - or the most significant clinical developments - in the sectors involving variety of functions: neurological, respiratory and cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, metabolism and perfusion; trauma infections, sepsis and organ failure; perioperative medicine and life support techniques; information technology dedicated to clinical medicine, but also as a means of information and education. The contributing authors are all part of leading research groups at the international level in the various sectors presented in the volume.

Quest'opera vuole offrire ai cultori dell'anestesia un testo essenziale per approfondire l'importante tematica dell'anestesia e malattie concomitanti, privilegiando la trattazione degli aspetti legati alle patologie d'organo e sistemiche di più frequente riscontro nella pratica clinica; l'attuale orientamento ha solide basi e mira a rafforzare la convergenza di vari specialisti in funzione del paziente. Lo scopo è di valutare attentamente il rischio chirurgico e anestesiologico, ottimizzare gli standard di sicurezza e l'approccio clinico interdisciplinare.

Continuous update in critical care medicine is a real challenge due to the growing dimensions of its contents; these elements are the result of new research acquisitions, and of those clinical situations where the physician is able to intervene at a given moment, with the use of effective prevention techniques.
