The Busarakham field hospital, which has admitted more than 14,200 COVID-19 patients since its opening in mid-May, opened its first intensive care unit (ICU) today (Wednesday), to treat severe cases waiting to be admitted to general hospitals.

 

Assistant permanent secretary of public health Dr. Kittisak Aksornwong said today that the opening of the facility, in the car park behind the field hospital at IMPACT Convention Centre, Muang Thong Thani, will help solve the problem of severe cases in the field hospital, who need to be transferred to general hospitals which are better equipped, but are having to wait due to bed shortages.

 

The ICU has 17 beds, 13 of which are for ICU patients, and 4 negative pressure rooms, with all the equipment provided by the National Research Institute.
