The first 28 days of a baby's life (neonatal period) are the most crucial. Premature babies or infants born with low birth weight need specialized thermal regulation, micro-climate incubators, and bubble CPAP oxygen support.
Dr. Shabd Singh Yadav (Senior Consultant Pediatrician & Neonatologist) leads our state-of-the-art Level-III NICU at Vardaan Hospital Rewa, providing round-the-clock intensive care for critically ill newborns.
### Red-Flag Signs in Newborns Needing Immediate NICU Care:

- Rapid or labored breathing (grunting sound).
