The Coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19), is a viral pandemic that emerged in the Wuhan city of Hubei province in China, as a cross-transmission between bats and human beings. This is spreading exponentially across the globe, claiming lakhs of life worldwide and the counting is on. In view of this, there is increased risk and substantial burden on healthcare, and the Intensive healthcare community must prepare themselves to tackle this crisis. As this disease results in rapid deterioration of an individual__ampersandsign#39;s health status, without any warning signs, the burden on ICU__ampersandsign#39;s might be unexpectedly higher if more individuals become critically ill at the same time. In this context, the traditional mode of ICU operation might not meet the demands; hence technological advancements in the form of e ICU__ampersandsign#39;s or Tele ICU__ampersandsign#39;s may be the next visionary step. This model could tackle several interconnected e ICU__ampersandsign#39;s simultaneously with only a few dedicated teams of multidisciplinary specialist from a remote place and a very few bedside functionaries. This model may be advantageous to cut down the risk of infection due to ICU overcrowding, challenges with deficient PPE__ampersandsign#39;s, physical burnout and psychological breakdown of healthcare professional. This would also ensure round the clock uninterrupted services without compromising in the quality of care, viz a viz, substantially reducing the healthcare costs and financial burden on the management in the long run. Although met with technical challenges and shortcomings of lack of software personnel and round the clock high speed connectivity issues, the benefits of e ICU outweigh the risks involved. Hence the government, regulatory bodies and healthcare management must give a deep thought on revolutionizing age-old ICU models to technologically advanced e ICU__ampersandsign#39;s that may cater to a larger population with limited intellectual resources in a crisis like Covid-19 pandemic.
