Critical Respiratory Care

Patients in acute respiratory failure or distress require specialized and timely interventions to stabilize and treat the underlying cause.

Key Highlights:

  • Management of Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS)
  • Invasive and non-invasive ventilation strategies
  • Monitoring of blood gases and respiratory mechanics
  • Sepsis and shock management in respiratory settings
  • Coordination with ICU teams for multidisciplinary care

FAQs

What conditions require critical respiratory care?

Severe pneumonia, acute respiratory failure, COPD/asthma exacerbations, and post-COVID complications may need ICU-level care.

What interventions are involved?

Non-invasive ventilation (BiPAP/CPAP), mechanical ventilation, and close monitoring of oxygen and carbon dioxide levels.

Who monitors patients in respiratory ICU?

A team of respiratory physicians, intensivists, and trained nurses work around the clock.

Is oxygen therapy enough for critical cases?

In many cases, advanced interventions beyond oxygen therapy are needed to support breathing.
