Bio

Dr. Hemant Sharma is a distinguished neonatologist with extensive experience in managing preterm and very sick neonates. He has been associated with Amrita Institute of Medical Science since inception and contributed significantly to establishing the Department of Neonatology. He is a National Board-certified superspecialist in Neonatology. His clinical work includes the management of extreme preterm and critically ill neonates, with experience in periviable extreme preterm infants achieving intact neurological outcomes. He is also involved in interdisciplinary projects such as ‘Ideal Delivery Time in Complicated Pregnancies’ and is a member of Mission NEEV in collaboration with the Delhi Gynecology Society for prevention of stillbirth and early neonatal death.

Landmark Clinical Achievements: 27-week extreme preterm baby with Hydrops Fetalis surviving with intact neurological outcome; 25-week triplets with zero day of mechanical ventilation and normal physical and brain development; 23-week twins weighing approximately 500 g and 630 g with minimal/no mechanical ventilation; successful 6-day peritoneal dialysis in a 1.3 kg, 33-week preterm baby with severe kidney failure; large series of extreme preterm neonates managed predominantly with non-invasive support with excellent neurological outcomes.

Neonatal Nursing Critical Care Programme: Contributed to Amrita Institute’s effort to improve neonatal care training for remotely located neonatal nurses. Amrita Institute, in collaboration with Kedman SkillEd India, developed an online Neonatal Nursing Certification Programme that trained thousands of nurses free of cost under Neonatology Department guidance.
