Emergency

The emergency services, which have existed since ancient times, have been specially designed for patients who urgently need medical help. The emergency service unit, which is divided into various units, intervenes according to the patient's condition. The increasing interest in emergency services in the 1960s caused this unit to be basically divided into three.

These three different emergency service units, called the red, yellow and green areas, determine and assign procedures according to the patient's condition and medical needs. Many hospitals in our country have their own emergency departments. There is no special action you need to take in order to benefit from the 24/7 emergency service units. You can efficiently benefit from the emergency service unit, which is open 24/7 at Elitium hospital.

What Diseases Does the Emergency Service Treat?

Since the emergency department is three different units, it actually looks after all kinds of diseases. People with mild illnesses in the green area, people with moderate illnesses in the yellow area, and people with very severe illnesses in the red area are treated. In other words, even if you have a mild illness, there are situations where you need urgent medical support. In such cases, it is possible to benefit from the hospital emergency department.

The most common diseases in the red area are as follows, respectively; cardiac arrest, coma, shock, airway and respiratory distress, multiple traumas and severe painful conditions. The patients in the green area are those with mild illnesses. Patients in the yellow area are also moderate patients, but there may be people with mild diseases among them. The reason for this is that the pain of the patient with mild pain may increase over time.

What is a Pediatric Emergency Service?

As is known, pediatric diseases and adult diseases are different from each other. Since the departments and doctors of these diseases are different from each other, the pediatric emergency service serves differently from other emergency services. The system here is the same as that of most emergency units. In other words, there are usually green, yellow and red areas, and pediatric patients are referred to one of these three units according to their complaints.
