The Pacifica’s intensive care unit is a specialised ward located on Deck 10, where life-threatening conditions are monitored, treated and managed. Patients placed in intensive care typically require some sort of organ support (brain, heart, lungs, etc.) and invasive monitoring and/or treatment. As the name implies, intensive care requires medical care providers to spend more time monitoring and treating than they normally would. Starfleet medical protocols state that ICUs must maintain a patient to critical care personnel ratio of no lower than two to one.
