Critical Care

Critical Care is a service provided to patients who require constant, 24-hour monitoring. From this area, personalized attention is provided with the support of advanced technology and a team of specialists dedicated to the patient's speedy recovery and the restoration of their organs, aiming to address their illness and enable them to regain optimal conditions to resume their functions independently.

Our services in Critical Care

Our Critical Care Department comprises two major units:

  • Intensive Care Unit (ICU)

Our Intensive Care Unit attends to patients classified as critically ill or those with a clinical or physiological condition where any change in their condition could lead to death.

In this unit, we provide care for patients requiring:

  • Ventilatory support (mechanical ventilation)
  • Hemodynamic support (patients with issues related to blood pressure, heart conditions, rhythm disorders, neurological disorders, and severe metabolic disorders).

  • Special Care Unit

Our Special Care Unit serves as a transitional area. We provide care for patients transitioning from the Intensive Care Unit who require special attention while their condition improves. We also offer care and monitoring for patients coming from the Emergency Department or surgery for ongoing postoperative management.
