We accept various types of submissions, including: We are committed to publishing peer-reviewed research that advances the science and practice of intensive care. Regional scopeThe journal covers both Asian regional and global issues, aiming to provide an international platform for researchers worldwide. ACC publishes journals quarterly. All or part of the Journal is indexed by Emerging Sources Citation Index (ESCI), PubMed, PubMed Central (PMC), Scopus, KCI (Korea Citation Index), KoreaMed, KoMCI (Korean Medical Citation Index), DOAJ (Directory of Open Access Journals), EBSCO, Crossref, Google Scholar, ScienceCentral, and the Journal also can be downloaded from the homepage of the Korean Society of Critical Care Medicine (http://www.ksccm.org) and the Journal’s website (http://accjournal.orgorhttp://acuteandcriticalcare.org). This journal is primarily intended for scientific researchers and personnel who work for acute, critical care. However, its readership can be expanded to other positions: students can understand recent trends in acute, critical and intensive care medicine; physicians can obtain recent topics and cases for continuing education; policy makers are able to reflect the results of the articles to nation-wide public health and science promotion policies.
