As one of India's biggest and most comprehensive healthcare practitioners, Manipal Hospitals' Department of Neonatology runs state-of-the-art Newborn Intensive Care Units (NICU) for the care of neonatal babies who have fallen sick or have been born prematurely.
At Manipal Hospitals', each NICU is run by expert neonatologists who are assisted by a team of respiratory therapists, neonatal nursing experts and resident physicians. The combined expertise of the team and the advanced healthcare equipment in the NICU is crucial when it comes to ensuring the survival of newborns who are facing complications in their infancy.
It is very common for neonates to require blood transfusions while in the NICU. Since neonates are already in a weakened state, blood transfusions are often needed to help the neonate maintain enough blood for circulation. The blood transfusion is done through an intravenous line.
Thanks to advancements in neonatal care and the facilities available in the best NICU in Bangalore, even premature babies that are born with as little as 24 weeks of gestation have significantly increased chances of survival. In December 2018, a baby born at just 245 grams with 23 weeks and 3 days of gestation was able to survive and after 5 months, was discharged from the hospital and is expected to live a healthy life. Sometimes babies are born without fully developed body systems, which can make survival difficult. The lungs may not be able to breathe, the heart may not be pumping blood effectively etc.
The NICU is equipped with hi-tech apparatus that allows doctors to compensate for the underdevelopment of body systems in pre-term babies or undetected congenital defects, both of which endanger the survival of the newborn. Illnesses commonly diagnosed and treated in the NICU:

At Manipal Hospitals', each NICU is run by expert neonatologists who are assisted by a team of respiratory therapists, neonatal nursing experts and resident physicians. The combined expertise of the team and the advanced healthcare equipment in the NICU is crucial when it comes to ensuring the survival of newborns who are facing complications in their infancy.
The first challenge for the doctors is to incubate the neonate and maintain stability. After this is achieved, the neonate must be examined, diagnosed and treated for any complications that can threaten survivability. Neonatal nurses, respiratory therapists and lactation experts ensure that the neonate is given the right care and nutrition until it is possible to discharge the patient.
If the newborn's body systems are unable to support it sufficiently, NICU admittance becomes necessary. However, sometimes the neonate is admitted to the NICU to be kept under observation because of complications during birth. Visit our neonatology hospital in Millers Road Bangalore to know more.
