The WHO Short Course Critical Care Training for Severe Acute Respiratory Infection (SARI) includes content on clinical management of patients with a severe acute respiratory infection. 

This course is intended for clinicians who are working in intensive care units (ICUs) in low and middle-income countries and managing adult and pediatric patients with severe forms of acute respiratory infection (SARI), including severe pneumonia, acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), sepsis and septic shock. It is a hands-on practical guide to be used by health care professionals involved in critical care management during outbreaks of influenza virus (seasonal), human infection due to avian influenza virus (H5N1, H7N9), MERS-CoV, nCoV or other emerging respiratory viral epidemics.

The online course is made of 16 different modules and the total course duration is approximately 10 hours. At the end of the course, participants should possess some of the necessary tools that can be used to care for the critically ill patient from hospital entry to hospital discharge
