A cardiothoracic intensive care unit (CTICU) is a hospital unit that provides specialized care for patients after heart or lung surgery. It is equipped with advanced monitoring systems to track breathing, heart function, and recovery from complex procedures. Doctors and nurses in the CTICU focus on stabilizing patients, preventing complications, and supporting healing during the critical first days after surgery.
