Pediatric Intensive Care. Practice and Research - Martin E. G. Blohm;Dominique Singer

Pediatric Intensive Care Units (PICUs) are highly specialized medical facilities dedicated to managing both conditions that are unique to children and others that are also encountered in adults but require a distinct, age-related therapeutic approach. This reprint originates from a comprehensive call for contributions on "Pediatric Intensive Care-Practice and Research". The result is a robust collection of papers reflecting the specialty's entire professional and scientific scope, including resuscitation, congenital malformations, acquired infections, and long-term psychological outcomes. By addressing emerging infections, the implications of the global pandemic, and advanced organ replacement therapies, it powerfully highlights contemporary challenges in a field that has long since outgrown its own "infancy".
