PICU - Pediatric Intensive Care Unit

24 x 7 emergency care unit

PICU stands for Pediatric Intensive Care Unit. It is a specialized unit within Alpha hospital that provides intensive care to critically ill or injured children, from newborns to teenagers. The PICU is staffed by healthcare professionals who are specially trained in caring for critically ill or injured children, including pediatric intensivists, nurses, respiratory therapists, and other specialists as needed.

Children who require admission to the PICU often have life-threatening medical conditions, such as severe respiratory distress, sepsis, traumatic injuries, or neurological conditions. Treatment in the PICU may involve advanced medical therapies such as mechanical ventilation, hemodynamic support, continuous renal replacement therapy, and neurological monitoring, among others.

The goal of care in the PICU is to stabilize and treat the child’s condition, prevent further complications, and ultimately achieve a full recovery. The length of stay in the PICU varies depending on the severity of the child’s illness or injury and the response to treatment.
