ccmtutorials.org has evolved from two earlier websites 4um.com (1990s) and ccmtutorials.com (2000-10s) both of which received millions of visits when active.

There is no paywall, no clickbait, no nonsense. Non commercial – always. However……

The tutorials are for personal educational purposes only. They were specifically designed for Anaesthesiology & Critical Care Trainees and Fellows. The tutorials can be used without restriction by the College of Anaesthesiologists of Ireland,  the Joint Faculty of Intensive Care and the University of Galway (and other Irish Colleges and Irish Postgraduate Medical Organisations). Formal use by other organisations will require a license.

If there are any specific topics relating to medicine, anesthesiology or critical care that you wish me to cover in the future, please drop me a message.
