High Risk Pregnancy & Fetal Medicine
KIMSHEALTH Department of High Risk Pregnancy and Fetal Medicine was started in the year 2009 as a first of its kind in the state of Kerala. Since inception, the unit has catered patients with severe Maternal and Fetal complications and problems preceding and during pregnancy. Our unit has successfully managed close to 10,000 high-risk cases and the maternal fetal outcome is at par with international standards. Level 3B NICU and the state of the art facilities rendered by the labor ward and Senior obstetricians add to the merit of the unit. High Dependency Unit (HDU) support the care for critically ill mothers. The subspecialties like pediatric cardiology, pediatric nephrology and endocrinology are other highlights of the department
