- Abstract
The article focuses on the changing paradigm in taking care of adults in critical care units. It mentions the experience of a father whose child was admitted to the paediatric critical care unit (PICU), which reflects the significant role of paediatricians in providing care. The author emphasizes that paediatric intensivists must fully understand their patients and optimize critical therapies because of the children's critical condition and inability to talk or express their feelings.
