The Acute Cardiac Care Unit consists of 25 beds distributed in 12 rooms.
It is closely interconnected with the Emergency Room because the Acute Cardiac Care Unit only welcomes patients from ER who do not require admission to the Intensive Cardiac Care Unit (UTIC). In this Unit more than 1100 admissions have been made in the last year.
The most frequently treated pathologies are represented by heart failure, unstable angina, myocardial infarctions without overplanning of the ST tract (NSTEMI), tachy or brady arrhythmias. In some cases, the transfer is carried out to specific inpatient wards (Cardiosurgery, Invasive Cardiology) for those patients who need further therapeutic procedures, after the first treatment and the initial diagnosis.
