German term or phrase: akut-stationäres
Not much context. In a leaflet about sleep disorders, this appears as the subheading. Although I think it is a 'treatment programme for in-patients who require urgent care'. I am looking for a more concise way of saying 'akut-stationäres', since it will appear in a printed leaflet. Any suggestions?

Just a suggestion, as often \'akut\' can indicate an emergency situation as well as an \'acute\' situation, and you do mention \'urgent\' yourself.

The Carolina Sleep Disorders Center is running \"emergency in-patient studies\"
