Hospitalization

Hospitalization is the placement of a patient in a hospital hospital for examination, treatment or rehabilitation.

The main reasons for hospitalization are:

  1. Exacerbation of chronic diseases requiring round-the-clock monitoring and intensive care (for example, cardiovascular or pulmonary diseases).

  2. Acute diseases and injuries that threaten the patient’s life (myocardial infarction, stroke, bone fractures, burns).

  3. Planned operations and manipulations requiring postoperative observation and care.

  4. Childbirth.

  5. The need for specialized diagnostic methods (endoscopy, angiography, etc.).

Hospitalization is carried out by referral from a clinic doctor or by an ambulance team in emergency cases. The patient may be discharged upon completion of treatment or transferred to another hospital. Thus, hospitalization is necessary to provide qualified medical care for conditions that threaten the life or health of the patient.
