title: [Comparative analysis of the situation of intensive care (author's transl)].
abstract: Intensive care in Hungary in most of the medium size and major hospitals is provided on a proper level thanks for a great effort. The areal distribution of intensive care units is satisfactory. In case that a special intervention cannot be realized in one of the departments lack of instruments or expert personal, usually there is a possibility within 50--70 km distance in another unit to carry out this intervention. As a result of controlled development at the end of the sixth five year plan the units will come up quantitatively as well as qualitatively with all the needs for intensive care. In the present--let us hope transitory--situation the lack of expert personal, out of date hospital constructions and the great variety in types of instruments are meaning serious problems. The difficulties are exaggerrated by the fact that the work on an intensive care unit puts on an increased physical and psychological burden. As a result, in spite of all their interest and beauty the intensive care and its counter pair the anaesthesiology are among the less inviting professions with high incidence of migration and fluctuation of the personal.
