About our ICU & Critical Care
The Intensive Care Unit at Trustmed Hospital in Badshahpur, Gurugram, looks after patients whose illness or injury is serious enough to threaten life or the working of vital organs. It is designed so that a patient who deteriorates is noticed within moments, treated without delay and supported by a team that knows what to do next.
Every bed has continuous monitoring of heart rate, rhythm, blood pressure, breathing and oxygen levels, with alarms that bring a nurse or doctor to the bedside immediately. Advanced ventilators, infusion pumps and life-support equipment allow us to support breathing, circulation and other organs while the underlying cause is treated.
The ICU works hand in hand with our emergency department and operation theatres, so a patient arriving in an emergency, or one who needs urgent surgery, can move between them quickly and safely. Families are kept informed through regular updates from the treating doctor.
Services & care
What our ICU provides
Continuous monitoring
Heart rate, ECG rhythm, blood pressure, oxygen saturation, respiratory rate and temperature are tracked around the clock, with frequent blood tests as needed.
Ventilator and breathing support
From oxygen therapy and non-invasive ventilation to full mechanical ventilation for patients who cannot breathe adequately on their own.
Circulatory support
Intravenous fluids, blood products and medicines that support blood pressure and heart function in shock and heart failure.
Treatment of sepsis and severe infection
Early recognition, cultures, targeted antibiotics and organ support for patients whose infection has become life-threatening.
Post-operative critical care
Close observation after major or high-risk surgery, including pain control, early mobilisation and prevention of complications.
Isolation rooms
Dedicated rooms to manage infectious conditions safely, protecting the patient and other patients in the unit.
Nutrition and rehabilitation
Tube or intravenous nutrition when patients cannot eat, and early physiotherapy to limit weakness and speed recovery.
Family communication
Daily updates, clear explanations and support for families who must take important decisions at a stressful time.

Step by step
How admission to the ICU works
- 1
Assessment in the emergency or ward
The treating team recognises that a patient needs intensive support, stabilises breathing and circulation and calls the ICU team.
- 2
Shift to the ICU
The patient is transferred with monitoring, connected to the bedside monitor and assessed by the intensive care doctor and nurse.
- 3
Treatment plan
Medicines, breathing support, tests and procedures are started, with specialists from other departments involved as needed.
- 4
Daily review and family update
The team reviews every organ system each day, adjusts treatment and speaks with the family about progress and next steps.
- 5
Step-down and recovery
As the patient improves, support is reduced and the patient moves to a ward or private room, followed by rehabilitation and follow-up.

Practical information
Information for families
- ICU visiting is restricted to protect patients: visiting hours are 11:00 AM to 12:00 PM and 5:00 PM to 6:00 PM.
- Wash your hands on entering and leaving, and follow the nurse's instructions about masks or gowns.
- Nominate one family member to speak with the doctor, so that updates are consistent.
- Do not bring outside food, flowers or medicines. Ask the nurse before giving the patient anything.
- Keep a list of the patient's current medicines, allergies and previous reports, and share it with the team.
- Your insurance desk can help with cashless approval while the patient is being treated.
Insurance and cashless treatment
ICU treatment is covered under hospitalisation benefits in most health insurance policies, often with a daily limit. Our insurance desk checks your policy, submits the pre-authorisation request and explains what may not be covered. In an emergency, treatment starts first and the paperwork follows.
