Overview

The Critical Care Department at Nepal Mediciti is staffed by a highly skilled team of intensivists, doctors, nurses, and allied health professionals dedicated to delivering the highest standard of critical care services. Equipped with cutting-edge technologies such as ECMO (Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation) for advanced cardiac and respiratory support and Sorin’s fifth-generation modular heart-lung machine, we provide comprehensive, round-the-clock critical care with a personalized 1:1 patient-to-nurse ratio.

Our multidisciplinary team integrates Protocolized Care with Precision Medicine to expertly manage severe infections, sepsis, trauma, brain injury, shock with multi-organ failure, and Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS). We offer a full spectrum of advanced life-support services, including mechanical ventilation, intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP), renal replacement therapy (RRT), advanced hemodynamic monitoring, and targeted temperature management.

The department employs an Early Warning System (EWS) and maintains a dedicated Rapid Response Team (RRT) available 24/7 to promptly identify and treat deteriorating patients. We also emphasize robust infection control, antibiotic stewardship programs, and provide point-of-care diagnostic and therapeutic facilities to enhance patient outcomes.

Our commitment extends beyond the ICU with efficient in-hospital and out-of-hospital transfers for critically ill patients, a comprehensive post-critical care follow-up clinic, compassionate end-of-life care, and organ donation services.

Supported by a sophisticated Critical Care Information System, we utilize evidence-based decision-making tools such as ADT Scores, ICU Protocol Toolkits, and Critical Care Scorecards to continuously monitor and improve the quality of care.

The Critical Care Department at Nepal Mediciti is dedicated to delivering safe, timely, effective, efficient, equitable, and patient-centered ICU care, leading the way in critical care excellence across Nepal.
