How does Neonatology Differ from General Paediatrics?
While general paediatrics covers a wide range of care for children from infancy to adolescence, neonatology is specifically focused on the first 28 days of life. This period is critical as it involves rapid physiological changes that require specialized knowledge and skills to manage issues like respiratory distress syndrome, jaundice, and feeding difficulties. Neonatologists often work with other specialists to provide comprehensive care for these infants.
