Patient with less severe conditions are attended by
nurse practitioners, followed by emergency doctors and some times by
senior specialists. In case there is severe exigency or critical case,
the doctor may be delayed.
Monitoring
The patients at the hospital may be kept under
observation to monitor the progress. Condition of the patient can be
analyzed on the basis of display on the monitoring unit. The system is
very sensitive, so one can hear an alarm even when there is any change
in the patient's position.
Testing
Your doctor may require specific tests such as blood
tests or X-rays, ultrasound examination or CT scans. An emergency
department staff will attend you, when you leave the department for the
tests. Please consult the doctor or nurse if you are unaware of the
complexity of the test or the procedure.
Lab test result may take a few minutes to an hour. Other tests such as
X-rays and those requiring special preparation may require more time. We
make all the efforts to obtain the results and report as early as
possible.
Treatment
As soon as the test results are available, your
doctor will discuss it with you and recommend a treatment or admission.
Treatment can be simple or complex depending on the condition of the
patient. In few cases, treatment can last for only few minutes or hours
with simple medical aides such as splints, bandages, IVs or medications.
You may be referred to a team of specialists.
In complex treatment or surgeries, you may be required to submit a
written consent.
