perinatology

Sharing its campus with Advocate Christ Medical Center ideally positions Hope Children's Hospital to coordinate every level of care at a single location. This includes services required during gestation through neonatology, pediatrics, adolescent medicine and the transition to adult level care for a long-term or chronic condition.

Christ Medical Center's perinatologists work closely with the neonatology staff at Hope Children's Hospital to ensure coordinated care and transports. The division's capabilities include:

  • Level II ultrasound, with colorflow Doppler 
  • Inter-uterine transfusion
  • Percutaneous umbilical cord sampling (PUBS)
  • Invasive fetal procedures
  • Genetic amniocentesis and genetic counseling
  • Chorionic villus sampling (CVI)
  • Consultation for high-risk pregnancies
  • Antenatal consultation 

To ensure optimal, coordinated care, perinatologists maintain constant communication with the referring institution and the mother's obstetrician.
