The Centre has introduced new rules for ICU admissions, prioritising patient and family consent.

The guidelines also outline specific qualifications for ICU specialists, aiming to enhance the quality of critical care services across the country.

Under the newly issued regulations, ICU admission for critically ill patients must only proceed with explicit consent from the patient or their next of kin, underscores respect for individual choices in healthcare decisions.

The guidelines outline stringent qualifications for Intensivists, specifying that they should hold a postgraduate degree in relevant medical fields and possess additional qualifications in Intensive Care.

The emphasis is on ensuring that healthcare professionals overseeing critical care units have the necessary expertise and training.

Developed by doctors specialising in critical care medicine from various hospitals and ICUs nationwide, the guidelines claim to stress on maintaining standard medical structure.

 Key criteria and standards for ICU admission:

The regulations stress that ICU admission should be based on organ dysfunction, the need for organ assistance, or anticipation of worsening medical conditions.

Key criteria include an altered level of consciousness and the requirement for respiratory support.

Conditions warranting ICU admission:

  • Altered level of consciousness
  • Hemodynamic instability
  • Need for respiratory support

ICU discharge criteria:

  • Return of physiological aberrations to near-normal
  • Resolution and stability of the acute illness
  • Agreement for discharge based on treatment-limiting decisions or palliative care

The guidelines also outline minimum patient monitoring requirements while awaiting an ICU bed, ensuring continuous assessment of vital parameters such as blood pressure, heart rate, oxygen saturation, and neurological status.

For inter-facility transfers of critically ill patients, the regulations mandate comprehensive monitoring to maintain the patient’s stability during transportation.

With these guidelines, the government aims to enhance the quality of intensive care services, promote patient-centric decision-making, and standardize critical care practices across the healthcare system.
