Dedicated care at SN KrishnaPaediatrics

The Paediatrics department at SN Krishna Hospital, Ujjain, cares for infants, children, and adolescents up to 18 years of age. From routine childhood illnesses to complex conditions requiring hospital admission, our team provides age-appropriate assessment and treatment in a child-friendly environment.

We manage respiratory infections, fever, malnutrition, seizures, and developmental concerns. Vaccination services follow the National Immunisation Schedule. The department works closely with the Neonatology unit for newborns who require step-down care after discharge from the NICU.

Conditions we treat

Acute Respiratory Infections

Bronchiolitis, pneumonia, and croup requiring careful assessment and oxygen therapy in younger children.

Febrile Illness & Dengue

Fever workup including malaria and dengue testing common in Ujjain's seasonal patterns.

Nutritional Disorders

Severe acute malnutrition, anaemia, and vitamin deficiency managed with therapeutic feeding and supplementation.

Childhood Seizures & Epilepsy

Febrile convulsions and epilepsy requiring investigation, anticonvulsant management, and parent education.

Neonatal Jaundice (step-down)

Hyperbilirubinaemia in newborns transitioning from NICU monitored with serial bilirubin checks.

Treatments & procedures

Vaccination

Complete immunisation services including BCG, DPT, MMR, and catch-up vaccines per national schedule.

Nebulisation & Oxygen Therapy

IV Fluid Management

Weight-based intravenous fluid therapy for dehydration from gastroenteritis and febrile illness.

How we treat our patients

Children are assessed with attention to growth parameters and developmental milestones alongside the presenting complaint. Treatment decisions weigh efficacy against safety for each age group. Parents are counselled at every step, with clear guidance on warning signs and when to return. Admissions receive daily ward rounds and written discharge summaries for the family doctor.
