title: [Responsibility of the surgeon in intensive care units].
abstract: Intensive care facilities in most hospitals are concentrated in one or more specialised units. There are different forms of organisation. The leadership of the surgeon or the anesthesiologist is common in operative intensive care. However, operative intensive care is an interdisciplinary task, and the surgeon is responsible for all problems connected to or resulting from the operation.
