From
its inception in 1968 as one of the first paediatric intensive care units
in the world the "CCU" has developed new treatments, shared knowledge and
provided outstanding care while striving to improve the outcomes of the
sickest children within the Hospital, the province and from other parts of
Canada.
Each
year care is provided to 2000 children with diagnoses including trauma,
organ transplantation, congenital heart disease, burns, cancer, asthma,
and other chronic respiratory diseases and supportive care is provided to
children following major surgery. In addition, the Critical Care Response
Team provides early treatment to 600 children on the wards of SickKids, to
prevent the need for ICU admission.
There is simply
no place quite like it.
Join
us to celebrate the leading edge research, life-saving innovation, and
persistent dedication that have changed the way the world practices
paediatric critical care.
