Inpatient Department

The inpatient ward provides space for hospitalization of patients with hematopoietic disorders for the purpose of diagnosis of these conditions and especially their therapy. In cooperation with the complement of the IHBT laboratories, highly specialized examinations are performed, including the latest molecular genetic and cytogenetic methods. Treatment is carried out in accordance with current national and international therapeutic procedures using standard and highly innovative drugs.

The spectrum of our patients consists mainly of:

• Patients with highly malignant hematological malignancies including acute myeloid leukemias (AML), acute lymphoblastic leukemias (ALL), blastic phases of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) and advanced stages of myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS)
• Patients with early and late complications after hematopoietic cell transplantation
• Patients with congenital or acquired bleeding disorders, including treatment and monitoring of these patients after surgical or dental procedures
• Patients with aplastic anemia or hematopoietic depletion due to other causes, patients with severe forms of hemolytic anemias, and patients with rare red blood cell diseases

The treatment of patients in the inpatient ward is regularly consulted within the working groups for individual haematological diagnoses that are established within the IHBT, such as the working group for acute myeloid leukaemia or the working group for myelodysplastic syndrome. Members or heads of these groups are often personally involved in the treatment of patients.

The inpatient ward also regularly hosts international clinical and small academic trials, giving inpatients access to the latest experimental drugs or therapeutic approaches.

The average length of hospital stay varies between 24 and 26 days. Our rooms are single or double and are superbly equipped including modern fully reclining beds and large screen plasma televisions. Unlimited access to high-speed wifi is a matter of course. The recommended list of things to do in the inpatient ward can be found here.
