Neonatology and Neonatal Diseases
Neonatology and Neonatal Diseases Units at Gruppo San Donato are dedicated to comprehensive maternal and neonatal care, offering advanced management of complex maternal conditions during pregnancy and childbirth, as well as high-level support for newborns, including those with severe or preterm conditions.
The Neonatal Pathology specalists of Ospedale San Raffaele make use of decades of multidisciplinary experience in newborncare, even in the case of complex neonatal pathologies and maternal pathologies arising before or during pregnancy that may cause preterm birth.
The research lines in Neonatology mainly concern two clinical areas: the study of the central nervous system in newborns and the outcome of pregnancies in diabetic mothers. Since January 2018, the Neonatology and Pediatric Immunohematology Departments of Ospedale San Raffaele have implemented neonatal screening in collaboration with the Meyer Hospital of Florence to identify newborns potentially affected by primary immunodeficiency at an early stage.
