Indian Society of Critical Care Medicine 19th Annual Congress 2013 (CRITICARE 2013)

The annual conference related to Critical Care in India has “come of age” the theme of Pune congress in 2012. With the coming of age comes maturity and with that comes responsibility and accountability , an appropriate follow up theme for Kolkata congress. Accountable,Accessible and Affordable Care has been selected as the theme for Kolkata congress , as the members of the organizing committee thought these to be the principal ingredients of critical care delivery mostly needed in our country.

In order to bring critical care in India at par with the international standards, original works, research oriented and basic science oriented topics are equally important and a balanced scientific program should be made.
