Coronary Intensive Care Unit

What Is a Coronary Intensive Care Unit (CICU)?

A Coronary Intensive Care Unit (CICU) is a specialized intensive care unit where patients with serious heart and circulatory system conditions are closely monitored and treated. Conditions such as heart attacks, rhythm disorders, heart failure, and sudden cardiac emergencies are managed by specialized cardiology teams.

In the CICU, patients’ heart rhythm, blood pressure, oxygen levels, and other vital signs are continuously monitored. The goal is to rapidly stabilize life-threatening cardiac conditions and provide intensive cardiovascular support.
