What is intensive care?

Intensive care is the general medicine for life-threatening conditions. It manages the most critical patients, those whose life and function of major organs (heart, lungs, kidneys, liver, or nervous system) are directly threatened. Regardless of the cause that jeopardizes life, intensive care prioritizes the lives of patients.

A resuscitation service operates 24/7 for continuous monitoring of vital functions and ongoing adjustment of therapies. To ensure this specific care, numerous caregivers, consistently present, provide multiple treatments requiring the use of sophisticated medical equipment.
