Perinatal Center

In cooperation with the Departments of Pediatric and Pediatric Surgery, the Center manages pregnancy and childbirth. It also conducts fertility treatments such as in-vitro fertilization and embryo transfer, and works on treatment of refractory infertility.
Medical Services
The Center has 9 MFICU beds, 21 NICU beds, and 36 GCU beds, and it accepts many maternal and neonatal cases from other facilities. For normal deliveries, doctors and midwives cooperatively make efforts to ensure comfortable and safe delivery. We can also offer less painful delivery (Epidural Anesthesia) under the cooperation of the anesthesiologist. For fertility treatment, the Center provides cutting-edge medical care such as micro fertilization and frozen-thawed embryo transfer, and is actively working on treatment of refractory infertility.
Treatment Policy
The best treatment policy for the mother and baby is determined by joint review meetings. For childbirth, free-style delivery and attendance by the husband are possible if the mother wishes. The Center is also striving to create a pleasant childbirth environment by providing things such as a rooming–in system and assistance with breastfeeding.
