About

INTENSIVE

INTENSIVE includes resources such as:

  • ‘Labs and Lytes‘: case-based problems for developing knowledge and problem-solving skills
  • support materials for educational courses run by The Alfred ICU
  • online resources related to teaching sessions from The Alfred ICU teaching program
  • critical appraisals and discussions from The Alfred ICU Journal Club
  • research and educational activities of the The Alfred ICU and its staff, and other critical care talks, news and updates from The Alfred ICU and beyond

All case-based scenarios are fictional, but may include realistic non-identifiable clinical data and are derived from learning points taken from clinical practice. Clinical details are not those of any particular person; they are created to add educational value to the scenarios.

INTENSIVE is a website affiliated with the SMACC conference and the FOAMcc Community.
