Case studies:  Emergency Institute for Cardiovascular Diseases and Transplantation, Târgu Mureș, Emergency Clinical Hospital “Prof. Dr. Nicolae Oblu” – Construction of Neuroexcellence Center, Zerlendi Tuberculosis Diagnostic and Treatment Center (Marius Nasta Institute of Pneumophthysiology), Bucharest

 

Emergency Institute for Cardiovascular Diseases and Transplantation, Târgu Mureș is currently located in the county hospital building, its departments being located on different floors and in different buildings.  Through the presented project, the Heart Institute proposes to build a new building dedicated to its services, which will include all medical wards and critical departments. The building will have 8 levels, it will be structurally independent but functionally linked to the existing body of the hospital. Support functions will continue to be used jointly with the county hospital.

The objective of the Emergency Clinical Hospital “Prof. N. Oblu” from Iași is to construct a modern and functional building that ensures correct compliance with intra-hospital flows. It includes an operating room with the possibility of adopting magnetic resonance imaging systems, spaces for neuromotor medical recovery, and robotic radiosurgery. The proposed solution is to build a new building connected to the existing one on several levels, with its own medical flows. The facade is inspired by the various forms of the area’s architecture, with plant inserts.
