Overview - Critical Care Medicine
Critical care medicine is a branch that offers advanced and intensive care for patients with severe, life-threatening conditions. Critical care doctors and nurses usually work in the intensive care unit (ICU), where they treat patients with critical illnesses or injuries. They use advanced equipment to monitor and treat patients around the clock. Their job is to keep patients stable and help them recover from critical conditions by providing the best possible care.

What Happens in a Critical Care Unit?
In a Critical Care Unit, patients with serious health problems receive specialised attention. Here’s what happens:

- Advanced Treatments: Patients receive essential medications and treatment supported by devices such as ventilators to help with breathing and dialysis machines for kidney support.
