Department of Anaesthesiology, Intensive Care, Emergency and Pain Medicine

In the case of anesthesia, pain treatment, intensive care or emergency medicine, personal care is a central concern for us despite our state-of-the-art equipment and equipment. The Department of Anaesthesiology, Intensive Care, Emergency and Pain Medicine, University Hospital Wuerzburg proves its professional competence in all these areas with more than 31000 patients per year.

With over 150 doctors, anesthesiology is one of the clinic's largest specialist areas. In addition to the elimination of pain during interventions and operations under anesthesia or regional anesthesia, emergency medicine, intensive care medicine and pain management are the three most important pillars of our treatment spectrum.

Technology meets management

Due to the state-of-the-art Equipment in the emergency ambulance, operating theatre and intensive care unit, it is possible to use the best therapeutic possibilities for the benefit of the patients. An innovative management in the accident outpatient department ensures a seamless and well-organised further treatment of seriously injured patients after the takeover.

In addition to its own operative intensive care unit with the possibility of lung replacement as well as the care of the intensive care ambulance stationed in Wuerzburg, our clinic also operates an interdisciplinary pain center under its own responsibility. Furthermore, we are one of the two certified centers for Malignant Hyperthermia in Germany. With our transfusion-saving Patient Blood Management, we meet the high quality requirements of a modern clinic. We are strongly involved in the region's emergency medical services.
