INTRODUCTIONPost cardiac surgery requires critical care of patients. Critical care is an exciting field with diverse and complex challenges. These challenges include identifying pathophysiology in the individual patient, integrating care providers from multiple disciplines, addressing social and psychological concerns in the sick patient, to name but a few. As a result of this complexity, care in the intensive care unit (ICU) must be guided by a thoughtful and organized approach.

INTENSIVE CARE UNIT (ICU)
Intensive care means providing the best care for patients with resources available.Critical care is the highest level of monitoring and intensive care in a hospital of patients with life-threatening failure of single/multiple organs or body systems.

TYPES OF PATIENTS ADMITTED INTO THE ICU
The types of patients admitted into the ICU includes:
Post cardiac-surgical patients from the operating theatre after an open/ close heart surgery.
Post diagnostic or interventional catheterization patients who are still critically ill and require intensive monitory.

ICU PROCEDURES
Health care professionals working in the ICU provide a ‘round–the- clock’ intensive Monitoring/ management.In addition to the vitals signs that are taken, a modified aldrete score is completed on patients who are not fully conscious.The frequency of observations is also based on patient’s needs

ICU PROCEDURES
All patients on IV fluids should have an up-to-date fluid balance Nurses record input and output regularly Urine output should range from 0.5-1ml/kg/hr and it should not be concentrated.

DISCHARGE OF PATIENT FROM THE ICUThe patient is only discharged from the ICU when he/she is conscious, awake, extubated and breathing freely.When the patient is no longer on any inotropes.When there is no bleeding from the cardiotomy. When patient is haemodynamically stableGood x-ray results.Arterial/ CVP lines removed.The discharged summary form filled.Then the post operation ward is informed of the discharged patient.

CONCLUSIONThe perfect work done in the operating theatre should be accompanied by an excellent post surgical care in order to yield the outcome so desired; which is to restore health to as many people affected with heart diseases as possible.
