Emergency Medicine

The department of emergency care carries out the immediate evaluation and treatment of patients who are rushed to the hospital with life-threatening illnesses or severe injuries. It is the specialty that needs prompt decision making and necessary action in order to prevent any further severity of the condition or death. Compared to other specialties, emergency care is considered to be a high-pressure and fast-paced department that requires a multi-disciplinary team with broad knowledge and clinical experience and technical skills.

The doctors who work primarily in the emergency department are referred to as “Emergency physicians”. They provide high-level quality care to patients of all ages with an exceptional breadth of knowledge and additional training on special skills. At an emergency department, patients are presented at any time with multiple problems without diagnosis and appropriate information. This would be a great challenge for the emergency team to carry out the rapid and proper diagnosis in the first few minutes of the trauma to establish a successful treatment.
