Neonatology is a sub-specialty of Paediatrics that deals with children from birth until one month of age. In the last decade or so, this specialty has emerged as a separate entity from the other areas of child healthcare, and has gained enormous momentum all over the country. This is mostly because the diseases and their treatment in this age group are very different from those of older children. Care to such sick newborns is best provided in an infrastructure which is particularly designed & created keeping tender newborns in mind, and by a committed team of physicians who are specially trained in the science of newborns, both in India and overseas.

Medica Superspecialty Hospital opens the doors of its stateof-art NICU (Neonatal Intensive Care Unit) to the newborns of Kolkata, Eastern India and rest of the country. The NICU houses 20 beds with all the modern gadgets like conventional ventilator, High Frequency Oscillator (HFO), Inhaled Nitric Oxide (iNO), Total Parenteral Nutrition (TPN), pneumatic chute etc, in an ambience which is very soothing and comforting to the distressed family.
