Neonatology

Neonatology is a medical specialty focused on the care of newborn infants, particularly those who are premature, have low birth weight, or are born with medical conditions requiring specialized treatment. Neonatologists provide comprehensive care in neonatal intensive care units (NICUs), addressing issues such as respiratory distress, jaundice, infections, and developmental concerns. They work closely with pediatricians, nurses, and other healthcare professionals to ensure the best possible outcomes for newborns, especially those with complex medical needs.
