mgmch

Welcome to the Department of Neonatology at Mahatma Gandhi Medical College & Hospital, a centre of excellence dedicated to the comprehensive care of new-borns—especially those born prematurely or with critical illnesses. Our state-of-the-art 20-bedded Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) is designed to provide specialized care for new-borns as early as 25 weeks of gestation, offering both life-saving interventions and long-term support for high-risk neonates.

Our NICU is equipped with advanced technology and evidence-based clinical protocols to ensure the best outcomes for our tiny patients.
We offer:

  • 6 mechanical ventilators, including high-frequency oscillatory ventilation (HFOV) for complex respiratory support
  • 3 non-invasive ventilators (CPAP, HFNC)
  • Thermo-regulated incubators and intensive phototherapy units
  • Comprehensive neonatal procedures such as Double Volume Exchange Transfusion (DVET), central line placement, parenteral nutrition, peritoneal dialysis, and invasive blood pressure monitoring
  • In-house Functional Echocardiography and Cranial Ultrasound for rapid diagnosis and management
  • Therapeutic hypothermia for hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) in asphyxiated newborns
  • Early enteral feeding protocols and total parenteral nutrition for optimal growth in very low birth weight infants
  • Human Milk Bank support to promote exclusive breast milk feeding in NICU
  • Developmentally Supportive Care, including pain management, kangaroo mother care (KMC), and structured neurodevelopmental follow-up
  • 24×7 neonatal transport services, enabling safe transfer of critically ill neonates from distant locations
