Overview2

Neonatology is a subspecialty of pediatrics focused on the medical care of newborn infants, particularly those who are ill or premature. Neonatologists are trained to handle complex and high-risk situations involving newborns, including:

• Premature birth (before 37 weeks gestation)
• Low birth weight
• Congenital abnormalities
• Birth trauma
• Infections
• Respiratory or cardiovascular conditions

The care is typically provided in a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU), equipped with advanced monitoring and life-support technologies
