Pediatric Nursing Notes for SGPGI
A Strong Neonatology Emphasis
Given SGPGI's strong neonatology department, expect more NICU and neonatal-resuscitation-related questions than average. APGAR scoring and thermoregulation in neonates are worth memorising precisely, since these are exact, fact-based topics with little room for approximate knowledge.
Jaundice Management and Balanced Coverage
Neonatal jaundice management, including phototherapy nursing care and the criteria used to decide on treatment escalation, is another area tested with more operational depth at SGPGI than in general nursing exams. Beyond neonatal topics, standard pediatric growth milestones and the immunisation schedule remain relevant and should not be neglected simply because SGPGI's paper leans toward neonatal content.
