Neonatal-Perinatal Medicine

The Newborn Special Care Unit, the first of its kind in the world, is a comprehensive, regional referral center dedicated to the care of premature and term neonates with medical, surgical, cardiac, neurosurgical, and cardiac surgical problems. Infants are transported to the unit from referring hospitals in southern New England. The only Extra Corporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO) unit in the region is located here.

The Neonatology specialists are board certified in neonatal-perinatal medicine and serve as attending physicians in the unit. Through participation in the NIH neonatal research network and other national multi-center trials, patients are offered access to the latest treatment modalities.

Consultation is available on a routine basis from other services, including pediatric radiology, pathology, and genetics. A Developmental Follow-Up Clinic for newborn "graduates" of the unit is conducted jointly with the staff of the Yale Child Study Center.

All requests for emergency transports of neonates should be directed to the attending physician in the Newborn Special Care Unit, who can be reached 24 hours a day at (203) 688-2318.
