The focus of the research program at The Intensive Care Unit (ICU) is the critically ill patient.​

Clinical and pathophysiological questions are assessed through clinical databases, pathophysiological studies of patients and experimental studies of critical diseases.


The research unit collaborates with several local, national and international organisations, including all of the ICUs in the Capital Region of Denmark, several other Danish and Scandinavian ICUs and the George Institute of International Health, University of Sydney.
