Welcome to the Journal of Anaesthesia and Critical Care Case Reports (JACCR)
Case reports are the stepping stones in building any body of literature. They are easy to write, have a mass appeal and have an important practical application to patient care.
In recent times this body of evidence has been neglected and the number of case reports accepted by mainstream journals has decreased considerably. Journals as policy are now not accepting case reports due to lack of space and the low priority attached to them. However, other branches like surgery and medicine have journals dedicated exclusively to case reports. The Journal of Anaesthesia and Critical Care Case Reports (JACCR) has been conceived on similar lines in order to cater to Anaesthetists and Critical Care Physicians
Aims & Scope: Journal of Anaesthesia and Critical Care Case Reports (JACCR) publishes original and interesting case reports and case series that contribute significantly to Anaesthesia & Critical Care Literature and practice. The focus will be on case reports and case series. These include rare cases, cases that have any significant message to deliver and challenging cases that have controversial management options in literature. It may also include any variation in techniques that the authors have innovated or a particular case that in the authors’ opinion holds a special significance. It aims to provide a widely accessible source of useful information to practitioners in the field through the problem- or technique-based approach of published articles.
Manuscripts must meet one of the following criteria:
- Unexpected or unusual presentations of a disease
- New associations or variations in disease processes
- Presentations, diagnoses and/or management of new and emerging diseases
- An unexpected association between diseases or symptoms
- An unexpected event in the course of observing or treating a patient
- New technique or modification of the original technique
- An unusual complication of a particular disease, medication, treatment protocol or surgery
- Findings that shed new light on the possible pathogenesis of a disease or an adverse effect
- A small series of cases with unusual outcomes.
- A technical note is demonstrated on a single case.
- A small series of cases less than 15 in number.
- Case Series, Case reports with literature review

Open Access Policy
A comprehensive outlook on open access policy that we follow:
Open access refers to the practice of making peer-reviewed scholarly research and literature freely available online to anyone interested in reading it at no cost and with limited restrictions with regards to reuse. Open access publications are freely and permanently available online to anyone with an internet access. The journal allows unrestricted use, distribution and reproduction in any medium (which is non-commercial), provided the article is properly attributed. All the articles are published, without any technical, financial, gender limitations, in an agreed format on the journal website and deposited in archive and indexing databases as applicable to the journal. All articles are assigned a Digital Object Identifier (DOI), thereby making it fully citable and searchable by title, author name(s) and the full text.
Why open access publishing?
Restricted access to scientific research and advancements through subscription pay wall hinders communication within the scientific community. Moreover, restricted access can also hinder the education and dissemination of scientific knowledge to the aspiring younger generations who are keen to pursue a career in science. Increased productivity and development of science can only be achieved by diffusing knowledge and providing the facilities for creating permanent repositories such as Open Access.
The use of a Creative Commons 4.0 License (CC-BY-NC 4.0) enables user/reader/peer to use the content with clear permission in a way that it can be reused and redistributed as long as the article source is appropriately given credit for non-commercial purpose.
