Acta Colombiana de Cuidado Intensivo is the official publication of the Asociación Colombiana de Medicina Crítica y Cuidado Intensivo (Colombian Association of Critical Medicine and Intensive Care). It is published every three months in March, June, September and December and is intended to be a means of dissemination in all areas associated with the management of the critically ill patient.
All the manuscripts received by the Acta Colombiana de Cuidado Intensivo are reviewed using a double blind system by experts in the specialty (peer review). The Journal publishes articles on research (Originals), Reviews, Case Reports, and Case Series, as well as Articles on Reflections, and Clinical Comments. Also, it offers the possibility of publishing supplements on specific topics that allows the reader to get into a particular area of knowledge in depth. The development of Intensive Care has encouraged certain areas of specialisation within the specialists dedicated to the care of the critically ill patient. Responding to this need, Acta Colombiana de Cuidado Intensivo pays particular attention to certain areas of interests which are made up by experts. The subject matter organisation of the Journal enables it to approach not just technical subjects, but also those related to the logistic organisation of the practice of intensive care. The areas of interest of the Journal are the following: epidemiology infection and sepsis coagulation and inflammation cardiovascular critical care mechanical ventilation bioethics nutrition and metabolism quality and costs neurological intensive care toxicology trauma obstetrics intensive care sedation and analgesia paediatrics intensive careSRJ is a prestige metric based on the idea that not all citations are the same.
