Most premature babies (>80%) are between 32 and 37 weeks of gestation, and many die needlessly due to a lack of simple care. For babies who cannot breathe at birth, the administration of rapid neonatal resuscitation is crucial to their survival. Extra care for tiny babies, including Kangaroo Mother Care and feeding support, can halve mortality in babies weighing <2000 g. Physicians must manage newborns with signs of infection with safe oxygen administration and supportive care for respiratory complications. Additionally, babies with significant jaundice require supportive care for a swift recovery. On Medflix, Dr. Mondkar, a pioneering figure in India's neonatology landscape, will take us through intriguing neonatal care ideas from her vast experience!
