NEONATAL INTENSIVE CARE UNIT (NICU)

At Nurture Hospital, we are dedicated to providing the highest level of care for our most vulnerable patients—newborns requiring intensive medical attention. Our state-of-the-art Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) is designed to offer comprehensive and advanced medical care for premature and critically ill newborns. Led by Dr. Vaibhav Jain, our team of experienced neonatologists and specialized nursing staff ensures the best possible outcomes for our tiny patients.

Advanced Neonatal Care

• Advanced Neonatal Ventilation Techniques: Our NICU is equipped with the latest ventilation technologies, including high-frequency oscillatory ventilation (HFOV) and non-invasive ventilation methods, to support the respiratory needs of premature and critically ill newborns.

• Exchange Transfusion: We provide exchange transfusion procedures for newborns with severe jaundice or blood disorders, helping to remove harmful substances from the blood and replace it with fresh blood.

• Point of Care USG & Echo: Bedside ultrasound (USG) and echocardiography (Echo) services allow for immediate and accurate assessment of neonatal conditions, enabling prompt diagnosis and treatment.

Specialized Therapeutic Services

• Therapeutic Hypothermia: For newborns with hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE), we offer therapeutic hypothermia to reduce the risk of brain injury by lowering the baby’s body temperature in a controlled environment.

• Umbilical Line/PICC Line/Chest Tube Insertion: Our skilled team performs critical procedures such as umbilical line insertion, Peripherally Inserted Central Catheter (PICC) line insertion, and chest tube insertion to provide essential access for medications, nutrition, and drainage.

Neonatal Surgery

• Expert Surgical Care: We provide neonatal surgical services for a variety of conditions, including congenital anomalies, gastrointestinal issues, and other surgical needs, performed by specialized pediatric surgeons with expertise in neonatal care.

Comprehensive Screening Programs

• Newborn Screening:

  Early detection and intervention are crucial for managing potential health issues. We offer comprehensive newborn screening programs, including metabolic screening, hearing screening, and Retinopathy of Prematurity (ROP) screening to ensure early identification and treatment of conditions that could affect a babb's long-term health.
