Anaesthesia, pain, intensive care and emergency medicine - A.P.I.C.E. ; Proceedings of the 19 th Postgraduate Course in Critical Care Medicine. Trieste, Italy - November 12-15, 2004
APICE 2004 has been organised to provide precise answers to these issues. In particular, considerable emphasis has been given to the reviews regarding the most important aspects - or the most significant clinical developments - in the sectors involving variety of functions: neurological, respiratory and cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, metabolism and perfusion; trauma infections, sepsis and organ failure; perioperative medicine and life support techniques; information technology dedicated to clinical medicine, but also as a means of information and education.
Alqadam Train Station
Aims to focuses on the redesign of the Southern Train Station of Damascus, located in the Al-Qadam area. The proposal aims to preserve the historical identity of the existing station while expanding it to meet the needs of modern urban mobility. The design balances heritage conservation with contemporary architectural expression, creating a space that respects the cultural fabric of Damascus while addressing future growth.Key elements include increasing station capacity, integrating sustainable design strategies, and enhancing passenger flow. Renewable energy use, passive ventilation, and green spaces are central to reducing environmental impact and improving user comfort. يركّز مشروع التخرج هذا على إعادة تصميم المحطة الجنوبية للقطارات في دمشق، الواقعة في منطقة القديهدف المشروع إلى الحفاظ على الهوية التاريخية للمحطة القديمة مع تطويرها وتوسيعها لتلبية احتياجات النقل الحضري المعاصر. يجمع التصميم بين صون التراث والتعبير المعماري الحديث، ليخلق فضاءً يحترم النسيج الثقافي لدمشق ويستجيب في الوقت نفسه لمتطلبات النمو المستقبلي. تشمل العناصر الأساسية زيادة القدرة الاستيعابية للمحطة، ودمج استراتيجيات التصميم المستدام، وتحسين حركة المسافرين. كما يعتمد المشروع على استخدام الطاقة المتجددة، والتهوية الطبيعية، وإضافة المساحات الخضراء لتقليل الأثر البيئي وتعزيز راحة المستخدمين.
