Neonatology/Perinatology
The Neonatal
Intensive Care Unit (NICU) at Children's Hospital of New York
specializes in providing high quality care for sick and premature newborns.
We realize that the hospitalization of a newborn child is a stressful experience.
With this in mind, we are dedicated to supporting you through your experience.
Remember, we do not just care for your baby---we are committed to caring
for you and your family.
Children's Hospital of New York is the hub of the Regional
Perinatal Network, which links hospitals throughout the tri-state area.
Through this network, high-risk infants are transported to Babies' neonatal
intensive care unit by helicopter or mobile intensive care.
The Neonatal Intensive Care Unit at Children's Hospital of New York is noted
for its contributions to the field of neonatology. Early neonatologists,
perinatologists, and obstetricians collaborated in research, which shaped
the field of neonatal care as we know it; including development of the APGAR
score and use of Nasal Prong CPAP. Please visit the divisional website
for a complete overview of the faculty, research, educational programs,
schedule, parent information, and current events within Neonatology/Perinatology.
