Machines that save lives
The principle of primum non nocere (first, not harm) should always be applied to critically ill patients, specifically when using extracorporeal organ support (ECOS) machines and monitoring devices. A multidisciplinary approach may be needed to minimize each ECOS device's additive negative interactions and unwanted adverse effects. This collection provides a state-of-the-art update by the most renowned world experts.

Julie Helms
Prof. Julie Helms Professor in Critical Care at Strasbourg University Hospital, France. Her research focuses on the pathophysiological mechanisms involved in vascular dysfunction of septic shock, with an emphasis on hemostasis disorders and immunothrombosis deregulation. She is the work-package leader of the scientific board of the international CRICS-TRIGGERSEP network and participates in the ANRS/Emergent Infectious Disease scientific committee. She is actively involved in several societies (SRLF/FICS, ESICM, ISTH), is representative from the SRLF/FICS at the Global Sepsis Alliance, and Associate Editor of ICM and Annals of Intensive Care.
