At Dr Mehta’s Hospitals, Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) is specialized wing dedicated to providing comprehensive, intensive care for little ones – critically ill neonates, infants, children, and adolescents.
In these critical care environments, they are admitted for a variety of reasons. Some may be grappling with severe illnesses that demand the specialized medical equipment and expertise uniquely available in the PICU and NICU.
Others require close, 24/7 monitoring and observation due to the intricate nature of their conditions. Additionally, there are those who, though stable, are considered at risk of deterioration, necessitating the vigilant care that our dedicated teams provide.
Our multidisciplinary teams stand ready to navigate the complexities, ensuring that each child receives the individualized attention and treatment required for their unique circumstances.
In contrast to the PICU, the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) in the Department of Neonatology at Dr Mehta’s is specifically dedicated to the care of newborns, typically those who are born prematurely or with congenital conditions that require intensive medical intervention.
We are dedicated to providing comprehensive and efficient healthcare services to sick babies/infants. Proud to have a rich heritage in offering a nurturing environment that supports the fragile health of these infants and facilitates their transition to a healthier, more stable state.
A multidisciplinary approach is employed to address the diverse needs of neonates at the newborn intensive care unit – from newborn screening services encompassing metabolic disease screenings, hearing assessments, and screening for Retinopathy of Prematurity (ROP) for preterm babies to total parenteral nutrition provision to ensure optimal growth & development.
Several factors may lead to the admission of newborns to the NICU, each demanding specialized attention and care.
Some common reasons include:
Committed to excellence, we regularly assess and enhance our facility – from advanced monitoring systems to specialized equipment – to meet the evolving needs of neonatal care.
