The surgical medical services within our pediatric and neonatal ICU are dedicated to children with critical medical conditions and surgical procedures. As specialists, we don’t need to say that when a medical emergency relates to children or teenage kids, our first step will be to make sure they are safe and then well-taken care for their fast recovery.
American Hospital’s Neonatal and Pediatric Intensive Care Unit provides comprehensive care to infants and children who require specialist surgery. These disorders can be identified after birth or anytime during childhood. Our multidisciplinary team of highly skilled specialists works in close coordination with the child’s family to ensure the best possible outcomes for kids requiring medical or surgical intervention during the tender years.
The surgical medical facility in the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU) focuses on children who have recently undergone surgery or are preparing to go for one. When kids get surgeries, the care and attention they need are a lot different than adults. There are many challenges that we, as healthcare professionals, come across. So when the children are taken to the PICU for specialized care, the Surgical Medical team is in charge of closely monitoring how the condition of the child changes. They monitor vital signs such as heartbeat, breathing, and oxygen levels via equipment customized for children.
Newborns and children with complex medical and surgical conditions need to be treated in the PICU at American Hospital. Some common health conditions treated in our dedicated facility for kids are:
Depending on the illness being treated at PICU, the surgeons, nurses, and other medical professionals work together to monitor the progress of a child, modify treatments as appropriate, and ensure that everything goes well for a fast recovery.
