Critical Care
The department has highly skilled medical professionals across all specialties working closely to provide continuous care. Our team consists of resident physicians, surgeons, intensivists, nurses, physical therapists, and technicians. Patients in the CCU are monitored 24/7 by specially trained clinicians who keep a close watch on each patient’s vital signs. If any abnormalities or warning signs arise, our medical professionals can act at a moment’s notice to ensure the patient gets the treatment they need.
Our Department of Critical Care is a state-of-the-art facility with the Latest Monitoring Equipment and Ventilators and Advanced therapeutic measures like ECMO. The department is known to have Individual cubicles for patient privacy and to prevent cross-infection as well as Isolation rooms (both negative pressure and positive pressure) for infected patients. Administrative automation is done using Advanced Draeger Innovian software linking all the ICU equipment, and Advanced Hospital Information System (Incarnus) for All patient information and notes which enables the nurses to do their work and less paperwork and charting.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is life support?
Laymen's term for a Mechanical Ventilator is usually known as life support. Patients who need less lung support than mechanical ventilation may simply have a mask over their mouths and nose to deliver oxygen. Another form of life support is Dialysis.
What is the difference between critical care and emergency medicine?
Critical care is the long-term treatment of patients who have an illness that threatens their life.
