[Post-specialty training program in intensive care medicine. Nordic and European aspects].
Intensive care medicine has become technically and conceptually more demanding in recent years and this has created a need for improved training and education in this field. In Scandinavia a successful post-specialty training program in intensive care medicine was established in 1998 and so far about 200 physicians have passed the two-year program. This program has contributed to an increased interest in and a development of intensive care medicine - both clinically and scientifically - in the five Scandinavian countries (Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Iceland and Finland).
