Neonatal Intensive Care Unit
Cares for critically ill newborns with a wide range of congenital or acquired medical and surgical diseases. A multidisciplinary team provides family centered, technologically advanced therapies for newborns from local, regional, and international points of origin. Initial consultation with members of the Division of Newborn Medicine leads to arrangements for transport, made in collaboration with the Children's Transport Team.
Prenatal Consultation Program
Provides prenatal consultation by phone and/or office visit. In collaboration with referring obstetricians, maternal-fetal medicine specialists, maternity center neonatologists, and subspecialists in the Fetal Diagnosis and Treatment Center at Children's, faculty in the Division of Newborn Medicine counsel families who expect newborns with congenital conditions that require postnatal care in our Neonatal Intensive Care Unit.
