Tele-ICU has evolved from a reactive remote surveillance tool into the foundation of a continuous detection-and-response infrastructure. This article traces the historical development of Tele-ICU across six distinct periods, from early pre-digital concepts through to the present day, and projects its trajectory towards 2050. The Origi1
READ MOREThe Europe-wide launch of the European-funded RESIL-Card tool marks a key step in helping hospitals strengthen the resilience and continuity of life-saving cardiovascular care during future crises. On March 14, 2026, hospitals and cardiovascular teams across Europe will gain access to a new online tool designed to help them prepare for1
READ MOREThe integration of point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) into medical education is hampered by a critical shortage of expert trainers. This article proposes a transformative paradigm that leverages remote mentoring technologies and artificial intelligence (AI) to create a scalable, sustainable and effective learning ecosystem for medical students. 1

READ MOREFollowing CE Mark certification in 2025, the Lifemotion® ECMO system has seen early use across Europe, Latin America, and Africa for ground, intra-hospital, and airborne transports. Portability, battery autonomy, and intuitive design enable safe ECMO beyond the ICU. These cases show mobility becoming a core expectation for ECMO platforms. They i1
READ MOREThe intensive care unit (ICU) remains one of the most complex, data-rich, and time-pressured environments in healthcare. Artificial intelligence (AI) promises a profound transformation of critical care, offering the potential to improve diagnosis, monitoring, and therapeutic decision-making in ways that can reshape ICU workflows, enhance patient 1
READ MOREArtificial intelligence holds unprecedented potential to transform healthcare, yet the current evidence base for AI applications in critical care remains limited. This article presents the ABCDEF framework to guide critical care clinicians in evaluating AI-based tools and demonstrate safety and effectiveness in real-world clinical environments. 1
READ MOREVasopressin, an adjunctive vasopressor agent in septic shock, is increasingly supported by evidence favouring early, targeted intervention. Recent research, from mechanistic reviews to artificial intelligence-driven modelling, converges on a coherent strategy: initiate vasopressin earlier, at lower norepinephrine doses, and before severe metabol1
READ MOREWe explore how echocardiography and cardiac output monitoring are becoming more accessible through AI-enabled ultrasound tools and the recent integration of pulse contour analysis into standard multiparameter bedside monitors. Echocardiography has become an indispensable diagnostic tool in the intensive care unit (ICU), providing criti1
READ MOREFrom ANDROMEDA-SHOCK 1 to ANDROMEDA-SHOCK 2, capillary refill time evolved from a bedside sign to a personalised, physiology-based resuscitation target with direct implications for clinical practice and ICU organisation. Introduction The evolution of haemodynamic resuscitation in septic shock reflects the identity of critical care1
