Where critical care meets critical thinking
CRITKNOW is a podcast dedicated to unpacking recently published critical care research. We go beyond summaries to provide thoughtful insights into clinical interpretation and the methodological nuances that shape study findings.
Our episodes break down complex statistical concepts and research methods in a clear, accessible way—while keeping the focus firmly on what matters most: clinical relevance and how evidence translates to bedside practice.
Designed primarily for advanced critical care trainees and early-career intensivists, CRITKNOW is equally valuable for anyone trying to navigate and make sense of the rapidly evolving critical care literature.
