The neonatal unit founded in 1954 has developed into a modern neonatology centre, which today helps extremely premature babies using state-of-the-art methods. Prof. Christoph Vogtmann, pioneer of neonatology in Leipzig, talks about the development from its foundation to today's perinatal centre.
Other topics at the event include new nutritional therapies, treatment options for severe lung failure and initial experiences with ECMO therapy. The importance of physical contact for premature babies and telemedical support for children's hospitals in Saxony will also be discussed.
