title: The role of the surgeon in the intensive care unit.
abstract: Trauma management and postoperative care require active input from surgeons in the intensive care unit, yet there appears to be diminishing surgical involvement in the care of the critically ill. A formal postgraduate training programme in intensive care medicine for several disciplines has been introduced in the Netherlands, which may lead to greater participation of surgeons in intensive care medicine.
