Beyin ölümü vücudun başta solunum olmak üzere tüm fonksiyonlarının çalışmasını sağlayan ve yöneten beyin sapı ve ilişkili sinirlerin geri dönüşümsüz hasarıdır. Beyin ölümü tıbbi ve yasal olarak ölümdür. Beyin ölümünden sonra kalp bir süre çalışır ancak daha sonra kalp de durur.

Beyin ölümü tanısı en az iki uzman hekimin detaylı klinik değerlendirmesi ve bazı ek testlerle konulur, kayıt altına alınır ve Sağlık Bakanlığına bildirimi yapılır. Tüm süreç Sağlık Bakanlığı Yönetmeliği çerçevesinde yürütülür. 

Beyin ölümü olan kişilerden organ bağışı süreci hastayı takip eden doktorlar tarafından değil hastanenin, Sağlık Bakanlığı bilgisi ve denetimi altında olan Organ Nakli Koordinatörlükleri tarafından yürütülür. Organ bağışı, organ bekleyen pek çok hasta için umut olmaktadır.

Sosyal medyada beyin ölümü tanısının organ mafyası ile ilişkilendirilerek konulduğu paylaşımların tamamı asılsızdır ve çok büyük bir özveri ile çalışan hekimlerimizi tarifsiz üzmüştür. Bu konuda Sağlık Bakanlığının da gerekli açıklamaları yapmasının uygun olacağını düşünür, kamuoyuna saygı ile duyururuz.

Since intensive care was defined as a subspecialty in subspecialty examination in 2012, intensive care subspecialty training has become available.  While intensive care subspecialty training has been in progress, legislative proposal on the certification of intensive care specialty without proper training among intensive care subspecialty trainees made us unite.   To that end, a sub-committee of intensive care subspecialty trainees was founded under Society of Turkish Intensivists in 11th National Congress of Medical and Surgical Medicine.    As a result of an election in 12th National Congress of Medical and Surgical Medicine in 2012, new sub-committee members founded “Young Intensive Care Specialists” group and has been carrying on ever since.

Vision

The society’s vision is to be the most prominent young scientific community with members capable of problem solving and cooperation, to adopt science as a principle as well as keeping up with latest technological developments.

Mission

• As a society our mission is to take an active role and enable communication between members across Turkey,
• to provide necessary support for the intensive care subspecialty training as specialty trainees,
• to be in contact with national and international scientific organizations in the scope of scientific incentive
• to play an active role in standardization of intensive care subspecialty training since it is a new area of subspecialty  and in a constant change
• to provide contribution and support to the definition and development of duties and authorities, personal rights of intensive care specialty
• to take an active role in determining and coming up with solutions to any possible setback experienced by intensive care specialty trainees.

Distinguished Members,
Sepsis is a syndrome characterized by multiple organ failure that occurs as a result of the body’s fight against infection becoming uncontrolled and damaging one’s own organs. This syndrome is encountered by intensive care specialists often, however, it is not desirable since it initiates the way that leads to death in many patients and we have to act quickly. According to the data of the World Health Organization, sepsis affects 49 million people and leads to nearly 11 million deaths  every year.  Disabilities or permanent organ failure may develop in some of the recovered patients.

Sepsis has a vast scale of global health threat and it is one of the leading causes of death, especially in these days of the COVID-19 pandemic.  According to the data of the World Health Organization, sepsis affects 49 million people and leads to nearly 11 million deaths  every year.  Disabilities or permanent organ failure may develop in some of the recovered patients.  The appropriate approach is essential in diagnosis since the symptoms and findings may seem obscure and it is also important in terms of management since it requires rapid intervention.  Early diagnosis, early antibiotic treatment and focus control, proper organ support therapy are the essentials for the sepsis approach.  Applying rapid, dynamic and proper treatment methods based on the principle of “first, do no harm”, which has been the core principle of medicine since Hippocratic era and which has also been the essence of intensive care specialty, holds great importance to to reduce both mortality and morbidity.

Undoubtedly, efforts should be made to prevent sepsis before its treatment as with any disease. Community vaccination, hand hygiene, compliance with infection control rules, and good management of the patient’s medical condition are essential steps in preventing sepsis.

The World Health Organization recognized the prevention, recognition and treatment of sepsis as a global priority. Annually, it is celebrated as “13 September World Sepsis Day” and the week it is in as “World Sepsis Week”. As the Turkish Society of Medical and Surgical Intensive Care Medicine, we celebrate the sepsis week with various scientific and social activities annually to raise awareness and improve the knowledge in our country. This year, despite our busy and critical days, we are proud to be able to organize our traditional sepsis symposium, albeit in a virtual environment.  We will start our symposium which includes national and international distinguished guests, whose program is presented below, with the webinar of our Nursing Commission between 20.00-21.30 in the evening of September 9, 2020. On September 10 and 11, 2020, between 14.00-16.30, we will talk and discuss the innovations and advancements in diagnosis and treatment of sepsis.

We cordially invite you to our symposium with the hope of taking a scientific and useful break from our busy schedule with the wishes of meeting on better days when we can have our regular examinations and hold meetings physically.
