care of premature infants

Caring for premature infants involves specialized medical support to help them grow and develop. They often need help with breathing, maintaining stable body temperature, and feeding, sometimes via tube. Monitoring vital signs closely ensures their organs function properly. They may require gentle handling, infection prevention, and extra nutrition to promote growth. Providing a warm, quiet environment supports their development, and ongoing medical team care addresses their unique needs. As they grow stronger, care gradually shifts to supporting their regular milestones, helping them transition to normal growth outside the hospital.
