Heart and Vascular Cardiac ICU (5-1 SP)

The Cardiac ICU is a fast paced, high acuity, 14-bed, critical care unit that cares for adult patients with complex cardiac, medical diagnoses such as myocardial infarction, cardiogenic shock, unstable arrhythmias, and heart failure. Our patients are treated with medical and interventional management. Nursing staff are trained in advanced heart failure management, including short- and long-term mechanical circulatory support (with devices such as intra-aortic balloon pumps, Impella catheters, and LVADs) and evaluation for advanced therapies and transplantation.

RN-HVC Cardiothoracic ICU (CTICU/WP3)

Cardiothoracic ICU is an 18-bed cardiac surgery unit, specializing in care for complex post-operative CABG, valve replacements, aortic dissection repairs, heart transplants and LVAD implantation. This is also the only unit in YNHH health system that cares for patients requiring ECMO, whether it is VV (lung bypass) or VA (heart and lung bypass). In addition, patients may require additional devices including IABP, Impella/VADs, and/or CRRT. Nurses will be trained to devices based on previous experience and progression of skills, expectations and critical thinking.

HVC Cardiovascular ICU and Stepdown (5-4 SP)

The Cardiovascular ICU and Stepdown is a 14-bed hybrid unit consisting of 8 ICU and 6 stepdown beds. We specialize in caring for patients post complex vascular surgery, such as aortic repairs, and post cardiac surgery patients such as CABG and valve replacements in our ICU beds.
