About Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU)

Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) provides specialized care for critically ill newborns.

What is a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU)?

A neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) is a specialized hospital unit designed to provide intensive medical care and life support to newborn babies, particularly premature babies or those with serious or life-threatening conditions.

It is also used to provide care for babies who may not be as sick, but require specialised nursing care. NICUs are staffed by healthcare professionals trained in neonatology such as neonatologists, paediatricians, nurses and other staff.

What Conditions Can the NICU Address?

The Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) addresses a wide range of conditions in newborns, including preterm birth (37 weeks of gestation), low birth weight (<2.5 kgs), anemia, apnea (respiratory arrest), pneumonia (lung infection), respiratory distress (difficulty with breathing), systemic infections (sepsis), intraventricular hemorrhage (brain bleed), hypoglycemia (low blood glucose), jaundice, seizures, congenital heart defects, and feeding difficulties.

Benefits of NICU Care

There are several proven benefits of NICU care:

  • Increases parental involvement in the baby’s care
  • Increases success of breast feeding
  • Decreased incidence of disease development
  • Optimizes staff communication and care
  • Ideal access to routine and emergency treatment
  • Facilitates earlier detection and management of medical crisis
  • Provides privacy and comfort to the parents

I checked many big hospitals in West Delhi for our baby's birth. However, Maccure gave the best service and that too at an unbelievable cost beating the likes of cloud 9 and apollo cradle by a big margin. You should definitely check it out once for yourself without trusting this review and you will bless the people when you yourself feel the care.

NICU FAQs

NICUs save babies' lives. Babies who get admitted to a NICU need medical care and services that are not found in a regular paediatric set-up. 

NICU care is important to save lives of babies who are high-risk, critically ill or preterm, as they are vulnerable and fragile. Thus these babies require specialized medical attention to give them the best chance at recovery with minimal complications and normal development.

How long infants remain in the NICU depends on the severity of their illnesses. The average length of hospital stay for babies in a NICU is 2-4 weeks. 

For premature babies, typically stay in the NICU for several weeks to months. For full-term babies with certain medical conditions, stay in the NICU may be for a few days to a few weeks. Healthy babies born at term typically stay in the NICU for less than 24 hours.

Benefits for Parents: NICU services guarantee that your baby has the best care available 24/7 with a trained and competent medical team which helps put parents at ease. Parents can also have time for recovery and self-care. 

For the new mothers, there is also availability of post natal services such as breastfeeding support, lactation consultation, kangaroo-mother-care education. Additionally, it makes transition to home easier by using systematic discharge planning, providing psychosocial support and educating the parents on neonatal care as per the baby’s medical needs.

The NICU team is trained to handle surgeries for critically ill babies. It is feasible and safe to perform surgery in the NICU if the need arises. The NICU has provisions for continuous monitoring of the baby during surgery through pulse oximetry, electrocardiography (ECG), blood pressure and heart rate measurements, temperature probe and arterial line. 

There is also availability for surgical tools, ventilators, anesthetic drugs, portable lighting and portable equipment to make sure the surgery is performed as precisely as it would be done in a sterile operation theatre.

Infection control is managed by implementing strict isolation precautions in NICUs. Such precautions include placing neonates with contagious infections in isolated units and meticulously using barrier precaution methods such as gloves, gowns, and masks when handling them.

Isolation precautions are very effective in minimizing cross-contamination (spread of infection from one person to another) and in lowering the risk of microbial transmission, thereby reducing the contamination of the NICU and incidence of hospital-acquired infections.

Here’s a few considerations for choosing the right NICU services:

The NICU team’s expertise and qualification: NICU care is provided only by those specialised and trained in handling preterm and critically ill babies.

The patient load of the NICU: NICUs that have a higher patient load have higher number of staff in the NICU team which is a big plus to ensure better outcome and success rates of the NICU treatment.

The availability of respiratory support: Specialised respiratory equipment and monitoring support is mandatory to provide care to babies in the NICU. This includes mechanical ventilators, oxygen masks, arterial lines, endotracheal tubes,nasal cannulas and pulse oximeter.

The availability of other specialised support: To handle any emergency and to monitor carefully, availability of, phototherapy, breastfeeding equipment, monitors, portable machines and incubators are necessary.

Warm and optimal environment: The NICU unit should have adjustable environmental controls for light, temperature, sound and ventilation.

The length of stay in the NICU varies from baby to baby. While in NICU care, the medical condition being treated, the risk of disease or death, baby’s birth weight, the stability of the baby’s vitals and the need for specialised care or surgery. 

The average length of hospital stay for babies in a NICU is 2-4 weeks. Once the baby has been treated for the condition medically or surgically, has recovered adequately, has reached 35 weeks of gestation in case of prematurity, has been feeding and sleeping adequate with all the vital signs showing medical stability and good health, the baby can be discharged from the NICU. 

Parental counselling should be provided by the NICU team regarding how long the baby should stay in the NICU and what can be expected from the care provided.
