The Intensive Care Unit (ICU) is a specialised area of a hospital which has the facilities, equipment and staff expertise required to manage patients with life-threatening conditions. Patients in an acute hospital are classified according to their severity of illness rather than their hospital location (Table 16.1). Generally, the patients on the ICU will be level 2 (high dependency) or level 3 (intensive) (Faculty of Intensive Care Medicine and Intensive Care Society, 2015).
