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.

Studi di grande interesse sperimentale e clinico sono stati condotti da numerosi ricercatori e clinici sull¿arresto cardiaco, tema-chiave in medicina, con l¿obiettivo di migliorare gli standards di prevenzione e trattamento della morte improvvisa. Tra gli studiosi di riferimento è di grande rilevanza il nome di Peter Safar, fondatore della Medicina del Malato Critico, recentemente scomparso e a cui la Scuola di Specializzazione in Anestesia e Rianimazione di Trieste vuole dedicare questo manuale, indirizzato a tutti gli operatori del settore.

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.
