Study Notes
Intensive Care Unit (ICU) Overview
- ICU is a specialized area in hospitals
- ICU care focuses on critically ill patients
- Patients in the ICU require sophisticated support, careful monitoring, and complex decision-making to adjust therapy as needed.
ICU Purpose and Discussion Points
- The purpose of the discussion is to cover the introduction, critical care beds, critical care design, and ICU equipment.
Introduction to Critical Care
- Critical care refers to the care and management of critically ill patients.
- These patients require sophisticated support, meticulous monitoring, and complex decision-making.
- Therapy adjustments are crucial to meet the evolving needs of the patient.
ICU Setting, Environment, Structure, and Facilities
- Image/diagram of a hospital ICU ward is likely shown, featuring multiple beds, medical equipment, and dividers.
- Relevant diagrams/images of an ICU layout will be displayed, possibly with a floor plan or 3D modeling, to illustrate different areas within the ICU.
Critical Care Beds, Equipment, and Supplies
- Detailed information about ICU beds:
- Types of beds available
- Functionality (e.g., electric back rest, knee/trendelenburg tilting, adjustable height)
- Dimensions
- Features like side rails
- Built-in control panels
- Materials utilized
ICU Bed Features and Accessories
- Epoxy-coated mild steel bed frame
- Perforated top
- 125 mm diameter, noiseless castors with simultaneous braking system that locks/unlocks with a single pedal
- Provision for I.V. Rod on both sides of the bed
- Four easy lifting guardrails on each side with upward and downward fixation.
- Easily operated built-in Control Panel on both sides of guard rails.
- Removable and interchangeable ABS engineering plastic head panel and foot panel with safety lock and roller bumpers.
- Bed size: 2160 x 1100
- All functions are Power controlled.
ICU Bed Types
- "In Touch" beds; benefit patients and caregiver, with touch screen capability.
- Emphasis on features like lateral tilting (complication prevention and treatment assistance)
- Impatient fall protection with side rails.
- Recovery features like mobilization lifts and rails, optimizing heart and lung performance, treatment positions, and complication prevention.
ICU Setup
- ICU layout diagrams showcasing patient care areas, clinical support zones, and unit support zones.
ICU Classification of Patients
- Level 0: Normal ward care
- Level 1: At risk of deteriorating, requiring support from critical care team.
- Level 2: Observation or intervention for a single failing organ, or post-operative care.
- Level 3: Advanced or basic respiratory support, involving multiple organ failure.
Types of ICUs
- General: Medical, Surgical, and Medical-Surgical ICUs.
- Specialized: Neonatal, Special Care Nursery, Pediatric, Coronary Care Unit, Cardiac Surgery ICU, Neuro Surgery ICU, Burn Intensive Care Unit, and Trauma ICU.
ICU Design
- The ICU design focuses on providing a healing environment that optimizes patient, staff, and visitor comfort.
- Natural light
- Reduction of noise levels
- Reducing medical errors
ICU Design: Patient Care Zone
- Usually includes single-bed rooms with adequate space, natural light, and views
- In-room storage for supplies, clothing, and personal belongings.
- Necessary equipment like portable imaging, dialysis equipment, special procedures, and mechanical ventilators.
ICU Design: Clinical Support Zone
- Staff work areas
- Centralized monitoring stations
- Workspace for order entry and medical documentation.
ICU Design: Unit Support Zone
- Administrative and support functions
- Staff support functions
- Conference spaces, staff lounges, on-call rooms, change of shift reports, medical record documentation areas.
- Includes offices, conference spaces, staff lounges, and workrooms for sterile and non-sterile supplies
ICU Design: Family Support Zone
- Designed close to the ICU, or within it, to support families and visitors.
- Family lounge
- Consultation rooms
- Meditation spaces for families.
ICU Accessories
- 3 oxygen outlets
- 3 suction outlets (gastric, tracheal, and underwater seal)
- 2 compressed air outlets
- 16 power outlets per bed
- Storage facilities beside each bed.
- Hand-washing facilities.
- Equipment shelf at the head end
- Hooks for IV infusions, extended from the ceiling
- Infusion pumps on stands/poles
- Level II ICUs might require multichannel invasive monitors.
ICU Staff
- Medical Staff: Senior medical experts (ICU director/intensivist). Other specialists (anaesthesiology, medicine), are acceptable if clinically engaged in commitment elsewhere. Junior staff - intensive care trainees & trainers are on deputation from other disciplines.
- Nursing Staff: Trained nurses are crucial for patient care in tertiary care ICUs.
ICU Allied Services
- Specialized support staff, such as respiratory therapists, nutritionists, physiotherapists, biomedical engineers, technicians, clinical pharmacists, social workers, counsellors, security, and other staff.
ICU Design Summary
- Patients needs for critical care
- Key indicators for ICU bed strength: at least 8-12 beds
- Adequate space for each patient (125-150 sq ft desirable)
- Minimum 10% isolation beds in the ICU
- At least 2 barriers to the ICU entrance.
Environmental Requirements
- Single entry and exit points plus emergency exits
- Sufficient fire safety and extinguishing equipment.
- Central nursing station for visibility of all patients.
- HVAC system (Heating, Ventilation, Air Conditioning).
- Fully air-conditioned ICU at 16-25°C.
- Ensuring proper lighting (overhead at 20fc, floor at 10fc).
- Noise control under 45dBA during the day.
- Non-porous, stain-resistant furniture.
Water Disposal and Pollution Control
- Colour-coded buckets for waste disposal.
- Hand hygiene with foot-operated sinks and alcohol solutions.
- Adequate fire safety equipment.
- Multipurpose rooms, lockers, meeting rooms, and communication facilities for staff.
ICU Organization
- Geographically distinct area within the hospital with controlled access.
- A single entry/exit and separate emergency exits are vital.
- Goods and staff should not pass through the ICU area.
- Separate the visitor traffic.
ICU Design Considerations: Transport/Location
- Prioritize fast and easy transportation of critically ill patients.
- Proximate location to emergency, operating, and trauma rooms as convenient.
