Intensivist Info

Intensivist Summary:
An Intensivist is a physician specializing in the diagnosis and management of life threatening conditions requiring sophisticated organ support and invasive monitoring. An Intensivist may care for a patient requiring support for hemodynamic instability (hypertension/hypotension), airway or respiratory compromise (such as ventilator support), acute renal failure, potentially lethal cardiac arrhythmias, or the cumulative effects of multiple organ failure. An Intensivist closely monitors their critically ill patients and must determine whether or not they have a reasonable chance of recovery to stay in the ICU. The intensivist works to keep the patient alive and helps the patient fight the condition which landed her or him in the ICU, with the goal of helping the patient recover.
