UM Neonatal-Perinatal Medicine Fellowship Training Program
Clinical Training
Clinical training is focused in the Brandon Neonatal Intensive Care Unit and the integrated Von Voigtlander Women’s Hospital. Fellows learn the skills necessary to resuscitate and treat critically ill newborns while receiving graded levels of supervision from faculty neonatologists.
The Brandon NICU is a 59-private-bed state of the art quaternary regional referral unit providing care for newborns with the full spectrum of medical and surgical problems from a wide referral area across Michigan and the Midwest. The Von Voigtlander Women's Hospital is within the Children’s Hospital and delivers approximately 5,000 newborns each year including those with complex congenital anomalies whose mothers received care in the Fetal Diagnostic Unit. Fellows are significantly involved in the management of all forms of mechanical ventilation, therapeutic hypothermia, inhaled nitric oxide therapy, peritoneal dialysis, and ECMO. In addition, fellows participate in air and ground medical transport, supervise pediatric residents and medical students, receive hands-on training in procedural and teamwork skills in the NICU and simulation environment, and provide antenatal consultations in the Fetal Diagnostic Center. Fellows work collaboratively with neonatal nurse practitioners, respiratory therapists, neonatal dieticians, physical therapists, occupational therapists, speech-language pathologists, and lactation consultants. During the three year program, fellows complete required rotations in Maternal-Fetal Medicine, Pediatric Surgery, and the Pediatric Cardiothoracic Unit (PCTU). The PCTU is a 30-bed unit that provides care for children with a full spectrum of congenital heart disease. Additional electives are available for fellows with specific clinical interests.
Throughout the 3-year program, fellows participate in the Developmental Follow-up Clinic under the supervision of specialists in Developmental-Behavioral Pediatrics and Pediatric Neurology.
