62Fellowship in Intensive Care Medicine - AHBF
The Fellowship in Intensive Care Medicine is a 12-month hospital-based, interventional program that trains healthcare professionals in the comprehensive management of critically ill adult patients. Developed in collaboration with Apollo, this fellowship emphasizes advanced organ support, life-saving interventions, and multidisciplinary collaboration within high-acuity ICU environments.
Fellows gain hands-on experience in mechanical ventilation, hemodynamic monitoring, and sepsis management, complemented by simulation-based learning and guided ICU rotations. The curriculum focuses on evidence-based clinical decision-making, communication, ethics, and leadership, preparing graduates to lead critical care teams with precision and confidence.
Eligibility: MBBS, MD/MS/DNB

Description
This fellowship delivers in-depth exposure to adult critical care medicine. The curriculum covers the principles of intensive monitoring, acute organ dysfunction, and life-sustaining therapies. Fellows learn to assess and stabilize patients with respiratory failure, septic shock, trauma, and cardiac emergencies.
Training includes bedside management, ventilator setup, and use of advanced monitoring tools such as arterial and central venous lines.
The program emphasizes infection control, sedation management, and nutritional support in critically ill patients.
Simulation-based modules prepare participants for high-pressure emergency scenarios like cardiac arrest, anaphylaxis, and multi-organ failure.
Clinical rotations in mixed ICUs provide experience across surgical, cardiac, and medical domains.
Academic sessions include journal clubs, morbidity reviews, and interdisciplinary case audits.
Ethical aspects of end-of-life care and family communication are integral to the course.
Fellows also gain experience in triaging, ICU administration, and research interpretation.
By completion, participants are skilled in decision-making under uncertainty, interprofessional coordination, and advanced patient care delivery.
The fellowship builds resilience, empathy, and academic leadership in critical care medicine.
