The degree of expertise and capability our ITU service has allows Surgeons and other Doctors at Kuwait Hospital the confidence to offer more complex surgeries and interventions to a wider group of patients.
Our department houses five cubicles, one of which is a specialist isolation room for those with infectious diseases. Each of these rooms has equipment to fully support your physiology and has the latest monitoring and therapeutic technology.
Using the advanced imaging techniques, the team are able to quickly identify and treat your condition avoiding the negative consequences of a delayed response to illness. The Consultants have advanced qualifications in the assessment and management of ITU patients, have worked in international centres of excellence and deliver teaching nationally and internationally.
Our ITU is supported by the hospital’s diverse medical services, so whatever your problem is there is a department or team within the building who can respond quickly to your needs. If more specialist advice is required, the Consultants have established links to the Public Hospitals in Kuwait and internationally respected institutions in the United Kingdom.
For the most unwell patients we have all the facilities for resuscitation and stabilisation including the latest technological support devices. We will discuss all available options with you or your family so that we can offer you the very best care in this circumstance.
We understand that being on the ITU is a worrying time for you and your family and that you will understandably have many questions for us. Our medical and nursing team will keep you and your family fully informed of all results, progress and discussions regarding your healthcare management. You can ask for an update from any member of the team or plan a comprehensive discussion with the Consultant or Consultants involved in your care.
When you get better and are eventually discharged to the ward, we will review you to ensure you are progressing well. Once at home, if required we can arrange a follow up outpatient appointment to ensure that there are no outstanding issues preventing you reaching your optimal well-being and if these are identified, devise a strategy to deal with them.
