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 steering
committee 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.
