The purpose of this report is to provide information regarding preparation for disaster management from the perspective of ICU physicians. Both a framework toward ICU preparation for disaster management and a guide to the relevant literature are presented. Our objective is to show that the understanding of disaster preparedness on multiple levels, including government, hospital, ICU, and clinician, may lead to optimal management in a disaster.
