Critical Care

Welcome to the ATS Critical Care website. We are excited to provide easy access to usable critical care resources. This site has been reorganized and the new educational material added. We hope you find this to be a useful tool at the bedside, on rounds and in the lab.

Introduction

The majority of the members of the American Thoracic Society matriculate from fellowship programs in Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine. Critical care medicine makes up about half of the clinical activities of these members and is, therefore, a major concern of our society. Non-member intensivists and other specialists are drawn to our society because of its leadership in critical care medicine. The ATS is proud of its Critical Care Assembly that coordinates the society's activity in this area. We have established the Critical Care section of the ATS website to acknowledge the importance of this area to our society. The Critical Care area of the ATS website contains programs developed by the Critical Care assembly. In addition, we invite individuals to submit material for publication here. Interactive educational materials are especially sought. Work submitted will be peer reviewed before being posted on the site (just as if submitted to print journals). Thank you.
