Cardiology Hospitalization Department Cardiology Hospitalization Department In the Hospitalization Unit of the Cardiology Department at the Shaare Zedek Medical Center, we make every effort to maintain a pleasant and open atmosphere for patients and their families, and to help them – as far as possible – lower the emotional stress caused by the hospitalization of their loved one with heart problems. The Department The Cardiology Department houses 35 beds, half of which are monitored by a stationary monitor or by telemetry. The Patients Department patients are hospitalized for a variety of cardiac conditions, including: - Post-infarction, directly from the ICU - Heart problems or suspected heart problems, referred by ER, such as chest pains, angina pectoris, heart failure and fibrillation, the most common of which is atrial fibrillation - Pre or post-evaluative or therapeutic catheterization The average age of our patients is 67. The Hospitalization The average stay is 2-3 days. Every day, 9 patients are discharged and 9 new patients are admitted into the department. However, in light of the department’s nature, another 5-6 elective patients are also admitted, in addition to the emergency cases. Meaning there are days upon which 10-15 new patients are admitted into the department. The combination of a high turnover with the nature of the treated illnesses – some of which are very serious and demand intensive treatment – creates a very heavy workload for the medical and nursing team. To provide every patient with the professional care and warmth they need, the department is divided into two, with a senior doctor responsible for each section, as part of a rota system. All the senior doctors participate in this rota.
