What is an "intensive care unit"?
An intensive care unit (ICU) is a specialized medical unit within a hospital designed to provide thorough treatment and monitoring for patients who are critically ill or unstable. It has advanced medical equipment, including ventilators, cardiac monitors, and infusion pumps, to support patients with life-threatening conditions. The ICU is staffed by highly trained healthcare professionals who provide continuous care and constant monitoring.
