ISCCM Critical Care Update 2026, 8/E for Practising Intensivists, Critical Care Fellows and Anesthesiologists | Annual ICU Reference | 16 System-based Sections on Recent Advances and Evidence: 1

ISCCM Critical Care Update 2026 is the 8th edition of the annual critical care compendium published under the aegis of the Indian Society of Critical Care Medicine (ISCCM). It is built as a ready reference for day-to-day intensive care practice, bringing together recent advances, contemporary evidence and current recommendations across the breadth of critical care rather than serving as a replacement for a standard textbook. Content is organised into 16 system-based sections: nephrocritical care, respiratory critical care, cardiovascular dynamics, data science and analytics, neurointensive care, infection and sepsis, end-of-life, ethics and transplant critical care, trauma critical care, oncology critical care, obstetric critical care, nutrition and metabolism, toxicology, extracorporeal life support, sonography, quality, safety and communication, and legal aspects, documentation and the electronic medical record. Each section is guided by named section editors, and its chapters are written by practising clinicians and academicians coordinated through ISCCM scientific working groups, with content adapted to the resources and clinical realities of critical care in India. Chapters are deliberately concise and focused, using summary tables, procedural checklists, evidence summaries and figures so that a busy intensivist can update quickly. Coverage includes point-of-care ultrasound, ECMO and extracorporeal life support, artificial intelligence and machine learning in the ICU, and the legal and documentation framework under the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita. Who This Book Is For: Practising intensivists: a once-a-year, quick-read update on what has changed in evidence, guidelines and ICU practice, organised by organ system and subspecialty for fast lookup during clinical work. Critical care fellows and residents: a structured revision and exam-preparation resource covering the full spread of ICU subspecialties, with section-editor-reviewed chapters for consistency and accuracy. Why This Book Helps: Keeps you current: compiles recent advances and current recommendations across critical care in one volume, so updating does not mean scanning many journals. Built for the bedside: concise chapters, summary tables and procedural checklists support decisions on common ICU dilemmas. Covers the whole ICU: 16 sections span nephro, respiratory, cardiovascular, neuro, sepsis, trauma, onco, obstetric and transplant critical care plus toxicology and extracorporeal life support. Reflects Indian practice: content is adapted to the resources, case mix and constraints of critical care units in India. Adds modern ICU themes: dedicated sections on data science and artificial intelligence in the ICU, point-of-care sonography, and legal and documentation practice under the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita. Key Features: 16 system-based sections, each led by named section editors, spanning organ systems and critical care subspecialties.
