About us

The Emergency Unit for Acute Cardiac Care is a specialized area within the hospital dedicated to the immediate and critical management of patients experiencing severe heart-related emergencies. Equipped with advanced monitoring systems, life-support technology, and a rapid response team of cardiologists, and specialized nurses, this unit provides swift diagnosis and intervention for conditions such as heart attacks, life-threatening arrhythmias, acute heart failure, and cardiogenic shock. The primary goal is to stabilize patients, prevent further cardiac damage, and facilitate timely access to definitive treatments like angioplasty or surgery.
