In this module, the focus is on the neonate who requires special and transitional neonatal care to support their physiological transition to extrauterine life. You will develop your knowledge and understanding of the physiology and pathological process related to the respiratory, cardiovascular, central nervous, endocrine, renal, gastrointestinal and immunological systems of the premature and ill neonate requiring special and transitional neonatal care. This will enable you to recognise developing illness and initiate plans of care. You will critically engage with the global evidence-base on neonatal special and transitional care building relevant research skills. The principles of supportive neurodevelopmental care will underpin the management discussed with family integrated care and multidisciplinary approaches at the forefront of your practice. The module will develop your neonatal expertise, advance your transferable skills and enhance your career options in the field of neonatology.
