class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The journal <span class="elsevierStyleItalic">Medicina Intensiva</span> is a fundamental tool for the diffusion of research, innovation and training in our specialty, and lies in close contact with other related specialties and different professionals involved in the care of critically ill patients. The journal is the official communicating organ of both the Spanish Society of Intensive and Critical Care Medicine and Coronary Units (Sociedad Española de Medicina Intensiva, Crítica y Unidades Coronarias [SEMICYUC]) and the Pan-American and Iberian Federation of Critical Care Medicine and Intensive Therapy (Federación Panamericana e Ibérica de Medicina Crítica y Terapia Intensiva [FEPIMCTI]). Thus, it constitutes a reference element in our specialty and contributes to raising awareness of the knowledge generated.</p><p id="par0010" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The journal first appeared in 1976 and has become the Spanish language reference publication in our specialty at a worldwide level. It is included in the Index Medicus, SCOPUS, MEDES, Science Citation Index Expanded, Journal of Citation Reports and the main databases for the transmission of scientific knowledge. In recent years it has shown progressive and sustained growth in its impact factor, which has increased from 1.193 in 2015 to 3.0 in 2023. This growth has been possible thanks to the great scientific work of the different editorial teams that have worked on this project from its start, and to all those who have contributed articles to the journal and have participated as reviewers in this great common project. This entire process, which now may seem easy, in fact involved much work and constituted a great challenge in each step:<ul class="elsevierStyleList" id="lis0005"><li class="elsevierStyleListItem" id="lsti0005"><span class="elsevierStyleLabel">-</span><p id="par0015" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">We were able to have the journal indexed in JCR.</p></li><li class="elsevierStyleListItem" id="lsti0010"><span class="elsevierStyleLabel">-</span><p id="par0020" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">An impact factor was obtained that has grown steadily over time.</p></li><li class="elsevierStyleListItem" id="lsti0015"><span class="elsevierStyleLabel">-</span><p id="par0025" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">We were able to place the journal in the third quartile in the section Critical Care.</p></li></ul></p><p id="par0030" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">In recent years, and in relation to the COVID-19 pandemic, the journal and different Spanish-language scientific societies have made great cooperative efforts to generate quality scientific information to provide the best care possible for our critically ill patients diagnosed with this terrible disease.</p><p id="par0035" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">At present, we are beginning to work as a new editorial team that will observe continuity with the projects that have already been started, though it will also be necessary to deal with challenges that arise in the editorial world and in the field of research.
