Site Maintenance October 29 – November 5
SCCM is currently performing major updates to its digital infrastructure to better serve members. Any website that requires an SCCM Customer ID and password to log in is currently unavailable until November 5, 2024. SCCM Customer Service and staff have limited capabilities, and response times will be longer during this time.
Todd Fraser, MD, speaks with Derek Wheeler, MD, about the article, “Critical Care Delivery: The Importance of Process of Care and ICU Structure to Improved Outcomes: An Update From the American College of Critical Care Medicine Task Force on Models of Critical Care,” published in Critical Care Medicine. Dr. Wheeler works as an Intensive Care Specialist at the Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center and serves as co-chair of the Society of Critical Care Medicine’s Task Force on Models of Care. In this guideline, Dr. Wheeler and coauthors make recommendations based on recent literature, which suggests that improvements in processes of care, ICU structure, and use of quality improvement science methodologies beneficially impact the outcomes of critically ill patients and reduce the associated costs of care.
