Overview
Safeguarding your life at all costs
Fatal malignancies and injuries require intensive care. Intensive critical care is for people who are suffering from life-threatening diseases. It usually takes place in an intensive care unit (ICU). As the name suggests, an intensive care unit is for patients suffering from some serious illness and need intensive recovery treatment. The intensive care unit has well-experienced intensivists, exceptional staff, monitoring by high-tech equipment, and empathic care.
At Aarna Superspeciality Hospital, appropriate care is given to sensitive patients requiring advanced respiratory support, patients requiring the support of two or more organ systems, and patients with chronic impairment of one or more organ systems which also require support for an accurate reversible failure of another organ. Our intensive care physicians are field experts in handling critical cases and leave no stone unturned to save lives.
Our CCU is managed with high-precision monitoring devices, advanced equipment, and a team of highly specialized critical care experts who will look after the patient every moment and ensure they are doing well. We at Aarna Superspeciality Hospital understand the situation and take the real-time decision irrespective of time to treat critical conditions.
