About the EMCrit Site

What is the EMCrit Blog and Podcast?

EMCrit is devoted to Maximally Aggressive Care: Maximally Aggressive Curative Care and Maximally Aggressive Palliative Care

To that end, we bring the best evidence-based information from the fields of critical care, resuscitation, and trauma and translate it for bedside use in the Emergency Department (ED) and the Intensive Care Unit (ICU).

Every two weeks we post a full ~20-minute podcast. In between, the site gets filled with blogposts, links, and EMCrit Wees (minature podcasts). CME is available for EMCrit Podcasts.

To get the maximum benefit from the site, sign up for notifications in your email whenever we post a new podcast. We never spam or sell your address–EVER!

Scott D. Weingart, MD FCCM (Editor-in-Chief, EMCrit)

My name is Scott Weingart. Any posts listed as authored by EMCrit are by me. I am an ED Intensivist from New York. I hold the degree of MD (Medical Doctor). I went to medical school and did my emergency medicine residency at the Mount Sinai School of Medicine and then did a fellowship in trauma and surgical critical care at the Shock Trauma Center.

Attempting to Bring Upstairs Care, Downstairs One Podcast at a Time

My career goal and the purpose of this blog and podcast are to bring Upstairs Care, Downstairs–that is to bring ICU level care to the ED, so our patients can receive optimum treatment the moment they roll through the door. The audience for this forum is medical residents, attendings, nurses, paramedics, EMTs and students.
