Pediatric Clinic N1 serves newborns, children of early age. Here, children of the age of 0-18, suffering from mucoviscidosis, are also treated, as the clinic is the base of the Republican Center of Mucoviscidosis.

Three associate professors, two assistant professors of YSMU department of Pediatrics N1, experienced neonatologists, pediatricians, and highly qualified medical staff works in the clinic. The staff of the clinic is involved not only in the diagnosis and treatment of diseases, but also in very low weight newborns care, pre-surgical treatment of patients.

Rapid pace of medical science development and its growing progress require the introduction and application of new, high-tech diagnostics, treatment methods in the clinical work, continuous improvement of the professional qualification of medical staff. Based on this requirement, the pediatric clinic develops modern prototypes for early childhood diseases. Specific attention should be given to the treatment of congenital infections, which can lead to early childhood mortality.
