ISF Announces its 9th Annual ISF Colloquium

Feinstein Institute, Long Island, NY, USA

Program Chairs: Stephen Lowry & Steven Opal

International Sepsis Forum Introduction
The International Sepsis Forum (ISF) is a unique collaborative effort between industry and academia. It is the first initiative to focus solely on management of patients with severe sepsis. While sepsis and its sequelae are still associated with high morbidity and mortality rates, new data on patient management are emerging that may ultimately significantly improve the current situation. Such findings need to be evaluated and incorporated, when appropriate, into existing treatment protocols. Headed by a Council of international experts and opinion leaders, the ISF is focused exclusively on improving the management of sepsis and, in particular, septic shock by developing an international consensus on the latest understanding of key scientific and clinical issues, and disseminating emerging practice guidelines to researchers, intensivists, and other critical care professionals worldwide.


International Sepsis Forum Mission Statement
The mission of the ISF is to improve the understanding and clinical management of patients with severe sepsis. To achieve this, the ISF is undertaking a broad range of activities including workshops, lectures, debates, and practical or practice guideline development and training programs for researchers, intensivists, and critical care professionals worldwide.
