PAEDIATRIC SURGERY

Paediatric surgery It includes facilities for outpatient consultation, indoor hospitalisation treatment, vaccination program for children, incubators for intensive care of new born, Neo-Natal Intensive Care Unit and Occupational and Physical Therapy for under-grown children. Round the clock treatment is provided by experienced paediatricians. Paediatric surgery arose when medical doctors recognised that children, especially infants and newborns have different medical and surgical needs compared to that of an adult. This reason for this discovery is because children have lower immunity to viruses compared to that of the adults, so children are more likely to easily catch a sickness. Children also react differently to certain treatments and they tend to need extra care, so paediatric surgery was created especially for the children so that they could be treated faster and they would have more care.
