NICU Level III: Advanced Neonatal Care for the Most Vulnerable Newborns

At Maternite Hospitals, we are committed to providing the highest level of care for newborns who require intensive medical attention. Our NICU Level III is a state-of-the-art facility that offers advanced care for premature, critically ill, and high-risk newborns. Equipped with the latest technology and staffed by a team of experienced neonatologists, pediatricians, and specialized nurses, we ensure that your baby receives the best possible care during their most vulnerable moments. We understand how challenging this time can be for parents, which is why our team is here to offer not only expert medical care but also emotional support, reassurance, and guidance every step of the way.


Comprehensive and Specialized Care for Critically Ill Newborns

1. Advanced Life-Saving Equipment: Our NICU Level III is equipped with cutting-edge medical equipment to provide comprehensive care for critically ill newborns. We utilize incubators and radiant warmers to maintain optimal body temperature for premature or unstable infants. Advanced ventilators and CPAP machines support babies with breathing difficulties, particularly those with underdeveloped lungs. Vital sign monitors track heart rate, oxygen levels, blood pressure, and respiratory rate. Total parenteral nutrition (TPN) and intravenous fluids are provided for infants who cannot feed orally.

2. Expert Care for Premature and High-Risk Newborns: Our NICU provides specialized care for the most vulnerable newborns. Premature infants born before 32 weeks of gestation receive intensive care to help them thrive. Low-birth-weight infants undergo close monitoring for feeding, temperature regulation, and respiratory support. Infants with congenital anomalies receive specialized surgeries or treatments, while newborns with respiratory distress benefit from mechanical ventilation or other life-support measures.

3. Neonatal Respiratory Support: Respiratory support is a key focus in our NICU, with advanced therapies available for newborns experiencing respiratory issues. Non-invasive positive pressure ventilation (CPAP) assists babies with underdeveloped lungs. Intubation and mechanical ventilation are available for newborns with severe respiratory distress. Surfactant therapy is used to help premature infants with insufficient lung surfactant breathe more easily. Oxygen therapy ensures babies maintain appropriate oxygen levels.

4. Specialized Monitoring and Treatment: In our NICU, newborns receive continuous, specialized monitoring to ensure their well-being. Continuous blood gas analysis assesses respiratory and metabolic functions. Electroencephalography (EEG) is conducted for newborns at risk for seizures. Neonatal bilirubin monitoring and phototherapy are provided for jaundiced infants. Cardiac monitoring is available for newborns with heart conditions or abnormal heart rates.

5. Multidisciplinary Team of Experts: Our NICU Level III is staffed by a team of highly skilled professionals. Neonatologists oversee medical care and treatment plans for each infant. Pediatric surgeons provide care for infants requiring surgical interventions. Respiratory therapists specialize in neonatal respiratory care. Neonatal intensive care nurses provide round-the-clock support and monitoring. Physical and occupational therapists assist in the developmental care of premature or critically ill infants.

6. Comprehensive Diagnostic Testing: Our NICU provides a range of diagnostic services to monitor and treat various conditions. X-rays, ultrasounds, and echocardiograms evaluate organ and systemic functions. Blood tests and cultures detect infections or abnormalities. Genetic testing helps diagnose congenital conditions or syndromes. Brain imaging, including MRI and CT scans, is used to assess neurological concerns.

7. Advanced Neonatal Nutrition Support: Proper nutrition is critical for newborns in the NICU. Parenteral nutrition (PN) is provided for babies who cannot be fed by mouth. Enteral feeding through tubes assists infants who need help with feeding. Breast milk support encourages breastfeeding or provides breast milk through bottles or feeding tubes. Lactation consultants guide mothers on how to express and store milk for their baby.

8. Infection Prevention and Control: Our NICU follows the highest standards of infection control to protect newborns from potential infections. Strict hand hygiene protocols and infection prevention procedures reduce the risk of cross-contamination. Isolation protocols are in place for infants with contagious conditions to prevent the spread of infections. Routine screenings detect early signs of infection, such as sepsis or meningitis.

9. Transition to Home Care: As a baby’s condition improves, we focus on a smooth transition to home care. Discharge planning includes clear instructions on home care, medications, feeding, and follow-up visits. Developmental assessments ensure the baby’s growth and milestones are on track. Home care support services provide continued assistance after leaving the NICU.
