The Surgical Intensive Care Unit
(SICU), a part of the Division of Critical Care at Sinai Hospital in Baltimore
provides care for the sickest patients on the surgical services. The Surgical Intensive
Care Unit treats patients from many surgical specialties: general surgery,
surgical and gynecological oncology, neurosurgery, trauma, orthopedics
and orthopedic oncology, oral and maxillofacial surgery, otolaryngology and
urology. Surgical intensivists, who are board-certified in Surgery with added qualifications
in Surgical Critical Care, direct an integrated multidisciplinary team of
nurse practitioners, physician assistants, SICU nurses, respiratory
therapists, nutritionists and social workers. This results in optimal patient outcomes
and meets the Society of Critical Care Medicine�s goal of delivering the Right
Care, Right Now.� Though patients receive state-of-the-art care
using the latest technology, patient and family communication and support remain
a priority for our staff.
