Top Notch NICU (Neonatal Intensive Care Unit) Specialists in Vijayawada

The entire delivery process can be very complex at times that can even bring about various changes in the bodies of the mother & child. During gestation, significant functions of the baby’s body like excretion, respiration, and protection are taken care of by the mother’s body. Many babies find it difficult to function independently after birth and require the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) support. Ankura Hospital provides the best NICU service in Vijayawada for all emergencies and complications after birth. 
Some of the reasons why babies get admitted to NICU are:

  1. Premature Delivery – The babies born well before the calculated due date or before 37 weeks of pregnancy need the support of the NICU for their development until they become capable of coping with the outside environment.

  2. Infection – Sepsis or infection is one of the major causes of neonatal deaths. Preterm babies are at a higher risk of infections than full-term babies. Such babies are often unable to fight off infections independently and get admitted to NICU for specialized treatment.

  3. Respiratory Distress Syndrome (RDS) is the most common respiratory problem in infants because of underdeveloped lungs. It can be treated in NICUs since advanced facilities like ventilators are available.

  4. Hypoglycemia – Newborns with low blood sugar levels or hypoglycemia require NICU support. 

  5. Maternal chorioamnionitis – It is the inflammation and infection of the placenta or umbilical cord or both, which occurs before or during labor. It puts the mother and the baby at high risk of infection, and hence they require a NICU facility.
