With
important technological innovations and excellent traditional
medical services, Hospital Herrera Llerandi recently renovated
its Intensive Care Unit.
This unit guarantees excellent service, not only based on the
introduction of important technological changes, but also
considering other factors equally important. The bases on which
the platform of excellent attention to critical patients rests
are: Cutting edge technology, efficient physical infrastructure,
renowned specialist doctors and highly skilled staff committed
in providing the best personalized attention.
It’s important to note that an added value of this Intensive
Care Unit at Hospital Herrera Llerandi is shaped by the Resident
Doctors and the Nurses staff, who are specially trained to care
for critical conditions patients, 24 hours a day - 365 days a
year.
Among many innovations in this unit, we can mention an advanced
monitoring system which allows controlling, not only vital
signs, but other heart and brain parameters of great medical
value, as well. In addition, we have introduced the monitoring
at a distance (telemetry) which allows to watch patients out of
intensive care, recovering in more relaxed surroundings, in the
company of their families, if their condition so allows.
The modern equipment provided to this unit includes metabolic
beds that continually register the weight of patients, fans,
special systems to provide oxygen and air conditioning units
with special filters to minimize contamination risks.
The Intensive Care Unit at Hospital Herrera Llerandi has a
sophisticated section for newborn babies which allows a more
efficient recovery for babies in critical conditions. The
neonatology section has high frequency fans, thermal cradles
with surroundings controlling oxygen, humidity and temperature,
non-invasive monitoring, music therapy and of course, highly
trained staff who are vigilant to avoid unnecessary manipulation
of babies.
