Anesthesia in Intensive Care Unit

Abstract

Intensive care of patients is performed, as a rule, in a modernly equipped Intensive Care Unit where patients are accommodated after major surgical procedures as well as those who require special medical care due to their general health condition and certain diseases. The values of modern intensive care units are successfully implemented in the work of the Intensive Care Unit, with special emphasis on continuous education and improvement of daily clinical practice. Anesthesiologists are actively involved in the entire process of perioperative care of transplant patients as far as preparation is concerned for placement on the transplant list, conducting anesthesia for an extremely demanding transplant procedure and postoperative intensive care.
