The situation is scary

We should AVOID unnecessary oral antibiotics advised by the street corner medicine shop for a possible viral infection.

It is/has becoming/become almost impossible to treat with so many of these deadly bacterias becoming resistant to 2nd or 3rd line antibiotics.

Diabetes in Children: Know the Signs, Act Early.

Diabetes can affect children of any age. Be alert if your child has excessive thirst, frequent urination, sudden weight loss, tiredness, or unexplained vomiting. These may be early signs of diabetes—or, in severe cases, Diabetic Ketoacidosis (DKA), a medical emergency ,with severe acid levels in blood.

When to be aware:
If your child is unwell, breathing rapidly, feeling unusually sleepy, or has fruity-smelling breath, seek medical care immediately.

What to do:
Do not delay. Visit the nearest hospital for urgent evaluation. Early treatment can prevent complications and save lives.

How to follow up:
Children diagnosed with diabetes need regular check-ups, glucose monitoring, and guidance from pediatricians and diabetes teams.

Supportive care:
Provide emotional support, maintain a healthy diet plan, encourage physical activity, and ensure timely medication. With proper care, children with diabetes can live active, confident, and healthy lives.

Let’s stay aware, act early, and protect our children. 💙

💜💜World prematurity day💜💜 and national newborn 👶 week activities from Healthworld Hospitals, Asansol.

A chance to meet and greet our tiny little friends. We had the 700 grammers and the 26 weekers and the slightly bigger ones as well.

This year's theme was 'give pre term babies a strong start for a hopeful future' - a concept we have always followed in our unit.

Wishing them lots of love,happiness and joy as they grow up to be champions. God bless. Best wishes to our little champions and their champion parents.

Special thanks to our hospital administration, our dedicated neonatal nursing team and our dynamic registrars for ensuring a safe neonatal stay for these pre term babies.

Congenital anomalies are not uncommon in newborn babies.
Some anomalies are repairable with good neonatal intensive care support and an expert pediatric surgeon.

The first reaction when we break the news of a congenital anomaly/abnormality is despair or hopelessness.
However there is hope for many of these problems.

Sharing a recent discussion that we had on duodenal atresia - an another the small intestine is not properly developed.

We have had 3 babies in the last 3 months ,who have been successfully cured in our hospital and doing excellent in follow up.

Another tiny little human makes it home - born 3 months ahead of time with grossly under developed lungs, a slightly longer stay on the ventilator (compared to our unit data), eventually makes it home. These little ones are resilient and do remarkably well with the right care and meticulous nursing monitoring and medical support. We are blessed to have a good team with us at NICU, Healthworld hospitals, Asansol.
