Introduction to Critical Sciences
Critical Sciences is a super-specialty medical field dedicated to the treatment of life-threatening conditions requiring immediate and intensive medical attention. At Prakhar Hospital, our Critical Care Unit (ICU) is equipped with advanced technology and staffed by a team of highly trained intensivists, nurses, and support staff who provide round-the-clock care to critically ill patients.
What is Critical Care?
Critical Care, also known as Intensive Care, involves the close monitoring and treatment of patients with severe, unstable, or complex medical conditions. Patients in the ICU may suffer from organ failure, severe infections, traumatic injuries, or post-surgical complications and need specialized life support systems to stabilize their condition.
Conditions Treated in Critical Care
Our Critical Care team manages a wide range of emergencies, including:
- Heart attacks, strokes, and severe cardiac conditions
- Respiratory failure (requiring ventilator support)
- Sepsis and severe infections (like septic shock)
- Major trauma (accidents, burns, head injuries)
- Post-operative care for high-risk surgeries
- Organ failure (kidney, liver, lung, or multi-organ failure)
- Poisoning, drug overdoses, and critical metabolic disorders
Signs That Require Critical Care
Immediate ICU admission may be necessary if a patient shows:
- Difficulty breathing or sudden respiratory arrest
- Unconsciousness or severe confusion
