Abstract
Respiratory intermediate care units (RICU) are a structure that in terms of complexity is between that of a hospitalization ward and the intensive care unit. However, given that its cost efficiency increases with complexity, the procedures that are carried out in it have also been increasing with it over time. We present the most frequent ones.
Keywords: RICU. Modes of ventilation. Assynchronies. Guided catheterisation. Ultrasound in RICU. Patient-ventilator interaction.
