The Department of Neonatology at Nepal Mediciti provides comprehensive, specialized medical care for newborns requiring expert attention due to conditions such as prematurity, low birth weight, intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR), congenital malformations, neonatal sepsis, pulmonary hypoplasia, neonatal jaundice, and birth asphyxia. Our state-of-the-art Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) features advanced technology and a highly skilled team of neonatologists, pediatricians, and neonatal nurses dedicated to delivering exceptional care.
We are fully equipped to manage critically ill newborns, including those with severe prematurity and extremely low birth weight. Our services encompass advanced respiratory support, nutritional management, surgical care, and developmental support. We specialize in caring for extremely premature infants born before 28 weeks of gestation and those weighing less than 1000 grams.
Additionally, our facilities and expertise allow us to perform complex neonatal surgeries such as abdominal surgery, neurosurgery, and cardiac surgery, even in newborns weighing under 2500 grams.
Our 12-bedded Level 4 NICU offers real-time monitoring of vital signs and oxygen levels, ventilator support, and advanced respiratory therapies. We provide comprehensive care for premature babies and infants with congenital anomalies, including intravenous fluid therapy, phototherapy for neonatal jaundice, and developmental care programs.
Parental support is a core part of our approach, with dedicated breastfeeding assistance and counseling to promote bonding and healthy infant development. Our NICU is equipped with advanced incubators, high-precision monitors, and bedside imaging technologies, including X-rays, ultrasounds, MRI, and CT scans to ensure accurate diagnosis and timely interventions.
With 24/7 neonatologist availability, Nepal Mediciti’s NICU guarantees continuous, round-the-clock care for critically ill and preterm newborns, whether delivered via cesarean section or normal delivery. We are committed to providing the highest quality neonatal care and improving survival and outcomes for newborns across Nepal.
