The nursing specialty known as "critical care nursing" is dedicated to providing the best care possible to patients who are critically sick or unstable as a result of serious accidents, operations, or life-threatening illnesses. An extensive range of settings and specialties, including general intensive care units, medical intensive care units, surgical intensive care units, trauma intensive care units, coronary care units, cardiothoracic intensive care units, burns units, paediatrics, and some trauma centre emergency departments, are where critical care nurses can be found working. With the use of endotracheal intubation and/or titratable vasoactive intravenous medicines, these professionals often care for severely sick patients who need mechanical breathing. ICU nurses are also referred to as critical care nurses. They care for unstable, critically sick patients who need more regular nurse evaluations.
