Our staff is well-equipped to handle all cases of extreme premature birth conditions. Here, the Critical Care wing for babies deals with those who need interventional treatment, constant monitoring, artificial ventilation, and exchange transfusion. We focus on providing ample good health to infants, babies, and children. Our experts deal with critical care, high-dependency, and low-dependency cases. In the case of critical care, we use interventional treatment, constant monitoring, artificial ventilation, and other modalities.

 

Premature births come under the category of high dependency along with in-utero transfers. Low-birth weight babies are low-dependency cases that are given proper attention through great feeding techniques besides close observation.
