About the Departments and Sections at The Children's Hospital at The Cleveland Clinic

 

Critical Care Unit

Physicians in the Department of Pediatric Critical Care Medicine provide diagnosis and management of neonates, infants, children and adolescents with the most serious, complex medical problems.

Children with shock, impending respiratory failure, status epilepticus, status asthmaticus, severe congenital heart disease, congestive heart failure, liver or renal failure, toxic ingestion, or severe infection are candidates for referral.

The critical care physician can coordinate air or ground transportation to The Children's Hospital at The Cleveland Clinic. Patients are cared for in the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU), where they can be closely monitored by pediatric critical care physicians and nurses.
