ICU(intensive coronary care unit) OR ICU(intensive care unit)

ICCU (intensive coronary care unit) or ICU
  • ICCU is a special department of Hospital which care the patients with critical and life- threatening illnesses and injuries, undergone a major surgical procedure.
  • Patient is continuously under observation and having all critical care instruments which may be useful in life threatening situation.
           


  • Each of the patient bed is having Multipara/Bedside monitor which constantly monitors the different biological parameters of a patient and all these data of all patients will be monitored by nurse at central monitoring system (CMS).
  •  Each of the patient bed is having major critical care instruments according to the illness of the patient.

MICROPROCESSOR BASED VENTILATOR

Microprocessor based Ventilator   Figure shows the block diagram of microprocessor controlled ventilator.(given below). It consists of two inter-connected systems: The Pneumatic flow system and an Electronic control system. The pneumatic flow system enables the flow of gas through the ventilator. Oxygen and medical grade air enter the ventilator at 3.5 bar (50 psi) pressure. These gasses enter the air/oxygen mixer where they combine and gasses then enter a large reservoir tank. An electronically controlled flow valve proportions the gas flow from the reservoir tank to the patient breathing circuit.   As the gasses leave the ventilator, they pass by an oxygen analyzer, a safety ambient air inlet valve and a back-up mechanical over pressure valve. The microprocessor controls each valve to deliver the desired inspiratory air and oxygen flows for mandatory and spontaneous ventilation. The electronic control system may use one or...

DC defibrillator principle & defibrillator.

                          DC DEFIBRILLATOR:   In almost all present-day DC defibrillators, an energy storage capacitor is charged at a relatively slow rate (seconds) from the AC line by means of a step-up transformer and rectifier arrangement or from a battery and a DC to DC converter arrangement the energy stored in the capacitor is then delivered at relatively rapid rate (millisecond) to the chest of the patient.             The basic circuit diagram of a DC defibrillator is shown in Figure. A variable auto-transformer T1 forms the primary of a high voltage transformer T2. The output voltage of the transformer is rectified by a diode rectifier and is connected to a vacuum type high voltage change-over switch. In position A, the switch is connected to on...

DEFIBRILLATOR ELECTRODES

                    DEFIBRILLATOR ELECTRODES: Generally three types of Electrodes are used: 1)                   External Electrodes: Used for transthoracic stimulation. It consists of metal discs about 3-5 cm in diameter and areattached to highly insulated handles. Most of the conventional electrode systems are circular, alittle concave with insulated back-side.Electrode gels are usually employed to reducecontact impedance of the interface. 2)                   Internal Electrodes : Used for direct cardiac stimulation. For internal defibrillation when thechest is open, spoon-shaped electrodes are used.They are made-up of polished, surgical-quality stainless steel. These paddles are overmolded with...
