Critical Care

Critical Care, also known as Intensive Care, is a specialized field of medicine focused on the diagnosis and management of life-threatening conditions that require comprehensive and continuous care. These include severe infections, major surgeries, trauma, respiratory failure, cardiac emergencies, or multi-organ dysfunction.

Care is often initiated at the site of the incident or emergency room and continues in specialized hospital units such as the Medical ICU (MICU), Surgical ICU (SICU), or Cardiac Care Unit (CCU). Guru Nanak Hospital is equipped with all such facilities to ensure that critically ill patients receive the highest level of care.
