摘要:
In a cooperative effort involving each medical society the joint study group of the medical research societies in Germany (AWMF) has established guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of various diseases. Special guidelines which pertain specifically to operative intensive care medicine do not exist. However, official recommendations have been made for intensive care management in general. These have been released with the support of the German Interdisciplinary Society for Intensive Care and Emergency Medicine (DIVI). Today, 10 such guide lines exist. Also yet the value of those guidelines cannot be assessed. It is beyond doubt that besides being of benefit, they do present some dangers. One must point out that these guide lines are recommendations and not rules upon which medical liability may be based.
