Critical care, also known as intensive care, is specialized medical care for patients with life-threatening conditions that require comprehensive monitoring and treatment.

Conditions such as severe infections, respiratory failure, heart attack, stroke, major surgeries, traumatic injuries, and organ failure often necessitate critical care.

The critical care team includes intensivists, critical care nurses, respiratory therapists, pharmacists, and other specialized healthcare providers.

ICU equipment includes ventilators, monitors, infusion pumps, dialysis machines, and other devices to support and monitor vital functions.

Patients in the ICU are continuously monitored using advanced technology to track vital signs such as heart rate, blood pressure, oxygen levels, and respiratory rate.

There are open appendectomy and laparoscopic appendectomy, with laparoscopic being minimally invasive and often preferred for quicker recovery.

If you have persistent joint pain, swelling, or instability that does not respond to conservative treatments, arthroscopy may be recommended.
