Chest X-ray:
The chest X-ray is a noninvasive tool used to visualize internal structures, such as the heart, lungs, soft tissues, and bones.
Most chest X-rays are taken while the patient is inhaling so that the lungs are fully expanded.
Several types of chest X-rays can be used to assess heart size, contour, and position; other types reveal cardiac and pericardial calcification as well as physiologic alterations in pulmonary circulation.

2. Common Equipment in the ICU
Respiratory Therapies
1. High Flow Nasal Cannula
High flow nasal prongs allow for high concentration of oxygen to be delivered to
patients comfortably. Something's this is used as a therapy of it’s own, or may be used
when the patient has a break from a tighter mask. The oxygen is routed through a
humidifier to ensure it is moist and does not dry the airways.
2. Non Invasive Ventilation (NIV)
Non Invasive Ventilation means the patient would be helped to breath, without any
tubes going into their mouth. “Non invasive” meaning nothing going in. A tight mask
usually covers the nose and mouth, and it is connected to a small machine which will
give extra oxygen or support with every breath.
3. Endotracheal tube (ET):
An ET tube is a tube that is inserted through the patients’ mouth into their wind pipe.
It is used in the ICU for patients who are having difficulty breathing because of a lung
problem, or for patients who are not awake enough to breathe for themselves. The ET
Tube is connected to tubing which is connected to a ventilator.
4. The Ventilator:
The ventilator has different settings and it is adjusted according to the needs of a
patient. Sometimes the patient is taking their own breaths and we support these, or
sometimes we need to set the ventilator to give them each breath.
3. 5. Tracheostomy:
It’s is a surgical procedure where a hole is made in a patient’s neck and a small tube is
inserted into their windpipe. The tracheostomy tube is then attached to the ventilator,
or oxygen support.
Other equipment's
• Arterial line:
Intra-arterial blood pressure monitoring is more accurate than non- invasive devices
especially in critically ill patient.
• Indications:
1. Continuous BP monitoring in patient with hemodynamic
instability.
2. During and after cardiac surgery.
3. In patient who require frequent arterial blood sampling
(ABG).
4. In patient on vasoactive medications (vasopressors).
• Complications:
1. Hemorrhage
2. Vasospasm
3. Air embolism
4. Infection
4. • Monitoring device
This machine is at the head of the bed and looks like a TV with all different colours and
it is connected to the patient using wires and stickers. This shows the nurses and
doctors constant information about many things such as heart rate, blood pressure
and breathing.
• Infusion pumps
Majority of these patients will need these pumps. These are pumps that you will see
beside the patient and they control the amount of medication or fluid that a patient
receives and how fast or slow it can be given. The fluid or medication flows through
plastic lines and passes through the pump and into the patient.
• Central line :
It is a special catheter inserted into a large vein in the body.
Different veins can be used for central line including jugular
vein, subclavian vein and femoral vein.
• Indication of cv line :
1. Difficult canulation: when the patient does not have adequate
veins in the arm.
2. When patient need special medications and parenteral
nutrition.
3. Central venous pressure used as a guide for fluid balance in
critically ill patient.
4. Determine the function of right side of the heart
• Complications :
1. Infection
2. Pneumothorax: collapse of the lung may occur and chest tube may be required for re-
expansion of the lung
3. Heamothorax
4. Air embolism and thrombosis
5. Cardiac arrhythmia
5. Nasogastric Tube (NG)
This tube goes through a patients nose and down into their stomach. It allows us to
feed them when they are too unwell to eat and drink as they normally would or when
their appetite is reduced due to illness. We can also give them medication through this
tube.
• Nasogastric (NG) Feed Pump
This purple machine will deliver feed to a patient at a set amount per hour. Most of
our patients will be continuously fed this way throughout their ICU admission. There
will be a bag of beige coloured liquid (feed) hanging above the pump with a thin
purple tube attached to it. This tube will go from the bag, through the pump and to
the patient where it is attached to a tube in the patients nose (NG).
• Total Parenteral Nutrition (TPN):
You may notice a green bag hanging near the patient. This bag contains white liquid
which is made up of all the nutrients a patient needs for their recovery. A pump will
continuously deliver a small amount to the patient.
• Thrombo-Embolic Deterrent Stockings (TEDS) :
You may notice the patient is wearing long green socks. These tight fitting socks help
prevent the development of blood clots in the legs.
• Intermittent Pneumatic Compression Machine ('flowtrons') :
a grey machine with a small screen on it hanging from the end of the patients bed with
clear plastic tubes leading to each of the patients legs. These tubes are attached to a
soft light blue wrap around each of the patients lower legs. keeping the blood moving
and preventing blood from pooling and forming clots.
6. • Pressure Relieving Mattress ('Air mattress'):
This mattress is used to prevent pressure injuries or 'bed sores'. Normally as we begin
to feel too much pressure against our skin we will move but patients in the ICU cannot
do this because they may unconscious or too unwell to move.
• Urinary Catheter :
a urinary catheter put in place to monitor an hourly output. This allows us to calculate
how much fluid is going in, versus how much is coming out. We can get ensure that we
prevent patients becoming fluid overloaded, or dehydrated.
• Scans: CT and MRI:
Patients in the intensive care unit may need further investigation in terms of a
computerised tomography scan (CT or CAT scan) or an MRI (Magnetic Resonance
Imaging) of their head, chest or abdomen.
• Ultrasound :
Ultrasound is a commonly used device in ICU. It is used to assist the doctor in inserting
lines, and also forms an easy and safe investigative tool. Most of the ultrasound
machines used in the intensive care are portable and could be used at the bedside.
The ultrasound machine has a probe attached to a monitor screen, and high frequency
sounds are emitted from the probe. The probe is placed on the part of the body to be
examined and images are obtained based on the density of the organ such as bone,
muscle or a blood vessel.
7. • Echocardiography :
This is a scan of the heart to look how it is functioning, identify leaky valves, looks for
any clots in the heart, and to guide treatment plans for the patient.
• ECG MACHINES :
ECG machines monitor the heart's electrical activity, like the rhythm and more. The
ECG test helps doctors diagnose and treat patients with heart conditions such as
arrhythmias, heart attacks, and heart failure.
Indications :
1. Monitoring of heart rate and rhythm
2. Detection of arrhythmias
3. Detection of myocardial ischemia
• HEMODIALYSIS MACHINES :
Hemodialysis machines remove waste and extra fluids from the blood of people
suffering from renal failure. These machines filter blood through a specific membrane
and return clean blood to the patient's body. Hemodialysis machines are critical for
acute kidney injury or end-stage renal disease patients.
• PATIENT BEDS :
Moving patients from room to operation room to ICU is common in hospitals. These
specialized beds can be adjusted to provide maximum comfort and safety.
8. • SUCTION MACHINES :
Suction machines remove secretions and other fluids from a patient's airway. These
machines are vital in managing patients with respiratory distress and are used to
prevent airway obstruction.
• DEFIBRILLATORS :
Defibrillators: device used to deliver an electric shock to the heart to restore its
normal rhythm in patients experiencing cardiac arrest.
Complication :
• skin irritation
• burn
• failure to return patient rhythm to normal
• Electroencephalograph (EEG) :
Technique of recording the electrical activity of brain in various conditions such as
seizure disorders (in epilepsy), head injury, stroke, brain tumor, etc.
• Intracranial pressure monitoring :
Patient with head injury or tumor is at the risk of increase intra cranial pressure which
is an emergency condition & may require immediate surgical intervention to prevent
permanent brain damage, Complication of ICP monitoring is bleeding and infection.
