About Us

Welcome to ICU@Sengkang

(Previously ICUbasics.com)


This portal is designed to provide a bare bones version of essential ICU topics for novice doctors and nurses at SKH. We hope to put together the essential stuff needed for a non-ICU doctor/ nurse to hit the ground running and manage ICU patients during an exigency.

It is a work in progress and the links will be updated once more content becomes available.

The site is a static HTML page hosted on Google domains. Formatting and multimedia content are kept to a minimum for a fast, less bandwidth-intensive experience over mobile and ease of maintenance. This project is currently in beta and we hope to improve it as we develop more content. If you have a workflow summary / cheat sheet/ flash card for the ICU greenhorn that you are willing to share, you can contact us using the mail snippet below this page and we can host the content here / link to your page with due credits.

We hope to develop this into a repository of quick reference resources over time. Most of the pages were contributed by Drs Lee YL, Wong J, Sharma K, Gare PS, Ho VK, Lie SA, Vimal V and RT Ms Cunanan AK.  Other individual contributors are credited under the respective topics.

Some of the flow charts/ flash cards  have been simplified and certain in-depth aspects intentionally ignored as this meant to be a survival guide for novice ICU staff. This portal is meant as a general guide and is not meant to replace standard textbooks, guidelines, hospital workflows or clinical judgement. When in doubt, call for help. 

The source material is mostly our institutional and personal teaching slides. We have tried to attribute to the orginal authors wherever possible. If any copyrighted material has inadvertently crept in, please feel free to contact us using the email snippet below and we will review the affected content.

Cheers and stay safe!
