Critical care education, without barriers

Praxis Crítica was born with a simple goal: that any doctor who cares for critically ill patients, wherever they work, has free access to up-to-date, evidence-based education.

It started as a YouTube channel and a Facebook community with online critical care lessons. This website brings that material together in an organised way: courses, downloadable resources and simulation tools.

Who is behind it

Dr José Ignacio Contreras Cruz, specialist in intensive care medicine at the ICU of Hospital La Inmaculada (Huércal-Overa, Almería, Spain). Researcher and teacher of ultrasound in critically ill patients.

Where we are heading

The project aims to become a non-profit organisation, to bring intensive care and ultrasound education to professionals in low-resource settings.

Principles

• Open access: all educational content is free.
• Evidence: every topic cites its sources.
• Independence: any collaboration or sponsorship will be declared transparently.
