In this module, students will become familiar with support of the cardiovascular, respiratory, renal, liver and haematological systems. The principles of management for each of the systems, including fluid resuscitation, inotropes, vasopressors, mechanical support of heart and lungs as well as extracorporeal techniques will be discussed. They will understand principles of renal and liver support, as well as becoming familiar with dialysis and haemofiltration. This will be coupled with general considerations in managing critically ill patients, such as nutrition and metabolic support.
