Education
Purpose of Education
We, the department of acute critical care and disaster medicine, investigate following wide range of fields, such as the search for mechanisms of biological response to severe stresses, the development of strategy for multiple organ dysfunction from the view of intensive care medicine, basic and clinical research about trauma, trauma preventive medicine and disaster medicine. Our targets of research are practical and cutting edge to work not only as a medical scientist but as a researcher for government projects.
Clinical Services & Other Works
Our emergency center was authorized to hold the 21st level I center in Tokyo on April 1, 2007. We give treatments over 8000 patients annual who are under critical condition like multiple organ dysfunction, severe sepsis and septic shock, life-threatening trauma as well. We also contribute to medical services, rushing to the emergency scene by a Doctor-Car/Helicopter at times.
