With nearly 1,200 employees, the Department of Acute Medicine (DMA) includes the anaesthesiology, clinical pharmacology and toxicology, intensive care, and emergency services.

The Intensive Care Service cares for adult patients who present or are in immediate danger of developing vital organ failure due to a pathology or its complications, whether medical or surgical, and whose life is generally at risk. It also advises and intervenes when needed during resuscitation situations in other HUG services and participates in urgent hospital interventions.
