Infection
The Infection (INF) Section of ESICM is dedicated to advancing the understanding and management of infections in intensive care medicine. Infections remain the leading cause of ICU admission and are among the most frequent complications associated with organ support. They are also a major driver of organ dysfunction, contributing to the development of sepsis and septic shock—placing them at the core of intensive care practice.
Mission
The INF Section brings together members with diverse expertise across the field of infection in critically ill patients. Key areas of focus include the management of infectious syndromes such as pneumonia and intra-abdominal infections, diagnostics and biomarkers, antimicrobial therapy and stewardship, patient monitoring, and infection prevention and control.
Our mission is to promote high-quality education and foster research in the field of infections in intensive care. We welcome all ESICM members with an interest in infection management and actively encourage contributions, ideas, and collaboration on new topics, projects, and initiatives
The next INF Section Meeting Section Meeting will take place on Wednesday, October 14, 2026, from 07:30 to 09:00 WEST in BM3 – Room 1.07 at the CCL – Lisboa Congress Centre.
