Oyster And Pearl- Intensive Infant Care

Though the medical care and facilities have reached new heights, pediatric surgery has always posed challenges to doctors. Oyster & Pearl hospital has taken up this challenge in the
department of Pediatrics to provide enhanced Newborn Intensive Care.
In the year September 2008, Oyster & Pearl hospital for Women and Children came into existence. This brain child of Dr. Avinash Phadnis and Dr.Amita Phadnis was born out of Shree Clinic. Other specialties were gradually started by the end of year 2009. The new departments of Urology and Nephrology were introduced by the year 2010. Later on in December 2010 a new healthcare facility Oyster & Pearl Tulip which specialized in Women and Children care was established at Senapati Bapat Road.
Located in Pune, Oyster & Pearl offers health care facilities in departments like Gastroenterology, Orthopedics, Breast Care, Plastic and Cosmetic Surgery, Pediatrics and Neonatology, Urology, Nephrology and more.
Pediatric Surgery involves surgery on fetuses, infants, children, adolescents and young adults. Children from birth to 17 ...
... years come under this category. As Pediatric science advanced, it was realized that medical needs of newborns and infants were very different.
In comparison to adults the immunity in children is low which makes them prone to contract infections. Physically petite, children getting into surgery need smaller tools compared to adults. Reaction and response to treatments in children was also found to be different. Thus Pediatric surgery came into existence to provide them with faster and better care and treatments. Hospitals dedicated to women and children started gaining importance.
The Pediatrics department of Oyster & Pearl is making use of advanced technology and newer techniques to handle the challenges in pediatric surgery. The latest techniques are used to treat birth defects like endotracheal issues in infants by surgery which otherwise went untreated earlier. This has led to a very low death rate of infants due to congenital malformations at the time of birth.

Pediatric Cardiothoracic surgery
