Our internal medicine department with an intensive care unit provides preventive, diagnostic, outpatient and inpatient medical care.
Generally, the department of internal medicine, known as internal medicine or internal medicine, is one of the basic branches of clinical medicine. Although the term internal medicine may lead one to believe that it deals only with diseases of the internal organs, this is not the case; internists treat the whole person. Can you imagine a range of 183,165 people? It would be a queue more than 90 km long. That's how many people we treated in our specialist outpatient clinics last year.
The inpatient section of the ward has modern reclining beds in single to triple rooms with en-suite facilities, TV and wifi access directly from the bed or from computers in the corridors. We have 7 beds in the ICU and within the standard beds we have 6 beds with monitoring equipment, the so-called intermediate section, where patients from the ICU can be transferred if their health condition still requires monitoring of vital functions. Thus, the patient is monitored more than in a standard ICU room and can be said to be in a similar mode as in the ICU.
"As far as the instrumentation is concerned, here I can mainly thank our owner, who has been supporting the modernization of the operation and equipment of all departments since the beginning of the purchase of the hospital. One of the many conveniences is that we now have tablets that allow us to immediately look up the results of a given patient's examination during bedside rounds. Also, as part of a recent equipment upgrade, we have the ability to telemetrically monitor the heart rhythms of our patients. They wear a small device similar to a "Walkmen" on their body. This device keeps the patient under constant surveillance and allows us to intervene quickly in the event of a sudden and dangerous change in heart rhythm, for example. In the coronavirus pandemic, we have acquired a so-called "standby" analyser in the ICU, which enables immediate analysis of some important biochemical parameters of the internal environment, especially in critically ill patients," said the head of the department, doc. MUDr. Karel Sochor, CSc.
We would like to show you how it looks like in our hospital by means of a video.
