Welcome to the UIHC Surgical Intensive Care Unit's portal subsection for residents. Here you will find basic information to help you with the day to day working of the Unit. This section can be used as a mini orientation at the beginning of your rotation.
We encourage you to refer to the Education guidelines section to orient your reading. A great deal can be learned during your rotation in the SICU by experience, personal motivation and association with effective teachers. Your involvement in patient care is integral to your learning experience. We urge your commitment and energy.
Please refer to the links about the day to day working in the individual bays of the SICU.
