Critical care medicine fellows rotate through two hospitals within the Duke Health System.
- Duke University Hospital
- Duke Regional Hospital
Duke University Hospital Medical ICU
This 32-bed, quaternary care medical ICU at the flagship site is staffed by critical care fellows and pulmonary critical care fellows 24 hours a day 7 days a week. In this busy unit fellows lead rounds, triage admissions, and supervise trainees. Fellows will gain significant experience in veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, conventional mechanical ventilation, and invasive hemodynamic monitoring. Fellows will also be expected to become competent in airway management, bronchoscopy, and pleural procedures.
Duke Regional ICU
In this 22-bed mixed medical and surgical ICU, fellows work with an attending physician and advanced care providers to care for a variety of conditions in a community hospital setting.
