Anaesthesia and Intensive Care Medicine Johanniter-Krankenhaus

Dear Ladies and Gentlemen, Dear Patient,

As  specialist centres, the Ward for Anaesthesia, Operative Intensive Care Medicine, and Pain Therapy support your treatment at Johanniter-Krankenhaus Bonn.

The main area is, of course, the surgical field, where we safely guide about 5,000 inpatients per year through their surgeries, some of which are very complex.

Furthermore, we care for surgical patients within our intensive care unit using a team of staff specially trained in intensive care medicine, and who also consult colleagues on the internal medicine ward on questions of ventilation or circulation optimisation.

Our other areas of operation naturally also include the maternity ward, where we place pain catheters as part of the care of expectant mothers and, in the case of a caesarean section, provide expert care for mother and child, both during and after the procedure.

Other areas of operation include the Outpatient Centre, with currently approx. 1000 outpatient operations in progress, as well as pain therapy within the inpatient and partly within the outpatient area as well.

In general, a preliminary discussion is held before every surgical procedure, your state of health is checked, and the best possible anaesthetic procedure is selected for your needs and for the surgical procedure.

Throughout the entire surgery, an anaesthetist will look after you using the latest medical monitoring equipment and will hand you over personally to our staff in the recovery room for further postoperative monitoring after the procedure.

In cases of major operations that require intensive medical monitoring, patients are taken to the intensive care unit immediately adjacent to the operating theatre.

In this recently built, state-of-the-art intensive care unit, you will be cared for around the clock by a specialised team from our hospital, in accordance with current guidelines and standards, and using the latest procedures.

Across all our activities, your personal well-being is our top priority.

We wish you all the best for your stay at Johanniter-Krankenhaus Bonn.

Yours,

Georg Baumgarten
