The ICU & Critical Care units at Zymus Hospital are staffed with a multidisciplinary team of doctors who are experienced in administering lifesaving treatments across various branches of medicine. Stringent infection control practices ensure sterile zero infection environment while state of the art monitoring systems provide the first level of diagnostic screening for patients in an emergency.

Patients are usually moved to the ICU from emergency wards or from the general ward if their condition is no longer considered stable. Here are some conditions that commonly require critical care:

Critically ill patients are often hemodynamically unstable (or at risk of becoming unstable) owing to hypovolemia, cardiac dysfunction, or alterations of vasomotor function, leading to organ dysfunction, deterioration into multi-organ failure, and eventually death. With hemodynamic monitoring, we guide our medical management so as to prevent or treat organ failure and improve the outcomes of our patients. Therapeutic measures may include fluid resuscitation, vasopressors, or inotropic agents. Both resuscitation and de-resuscitation phases can be guided using hemodynamic monitoring.
Traumas are the leading cause of death in the first four decades of life. Nevertheless, thoracic traumas only seldom require invasive procedures. In particular, chest drain placement is required in case of pleural disruption causing haemothorax, pneumothorax or haemopneumothorax.
In some cases, when a patient’s airway is restricted, an emergency tracheostomy is performed to allow a tube to go directly from a ventilator to the patient’s windpipe through a precise incision on the neck. The procedure allows the patient to breathe while other diagnostic approaches and treatments are considered.
