Department of Emergency Medicine

As pioneers of emergency care in China, the Department of Emergency Medicine at Peking University People's Hospital guarantees the highest levels of skill, expertise, and infrastructure. Each year, our emergency physicians treat over 200,000 patients in emergency settings. With unparalleled knowledge and experience, our specialists ensure prompt diagnosis and treatment.

Our department is structured to deliver comprehensive care for critically ill and critically injured patients—from pre-hospital care and initial assessment to stabilization, hospitalization, and discharge. It is composed of five main areas:

1. Emergency green channels for trauma/stroke/chest pain/critically ill patients;

2. Emergency resuscitation area, equipped with 6 beds;

3. Emergency ICU, with 40 beds;

4. Emergency clinics;

5. Observation unit, equipped with 36 beds.

Our standard protocols are designed to address all types of medical and surgical emergencies. Based on the hospital’s resource integration and protocol development, we have successfully established a trauma center/stroke center/chest pain center/heart failure unit. Key performance indicators are closely monitored to ensure smooth and efficient care delivery at all times.

In addition to providing outstanding patient care, the Department of Emergency Medicine is also deeply committed to education and research.
