What is the postoperative ICU like?

• The postoperative ICU has 18 beds specifically designed for patients who have just had heart and/or lung surgery. • You will be connected to a device that monitors your heart, blood pressure, respiratory rate and oxygen level. • Your IVs may also be attached to IV pumps that deliver medications at a set rate as well as a chest drainage device at the side or foot of your bed that monitors drainage from your surgical site.
