Neonatal Intensive Care (NICU)

Neonatal Intensive Care (NICU)

The first few hours and days of a newborn’s life are critical, especially for premature, low birth weight, or critically ill infants. Lt. Col. (Dr.) Manoj Sharma, a seasoned pediatrician and neonatologist, provides expert care in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU), ensuring that every newborn receives specialized, life-saving medical attention.

Why NICU Care is Essential?

Some newborns require intensive monitoring and medical support due to:
Premature Birth (Before 37 Weeks) – Underdeveloped organs need extra care.
Low Birth Weight (Less Than 2.5 kg) – Feeding and temperature regulation support is crucial.

Breathing Difficulties – Conditions like respiratory distress syndrome may need oxygen therapy or ventilation.
Neonatal Infections & Jaundice – Early diagnosis and treatment help prevent complications.
Congenital Conditions & Birth Defects – Specialized interventions for heart, brain, or metabolic disorders.
