Yes, pediatricians are trained to work in Neonatal Intensive Care Units (NICUs) and Pediatric Intensive Care Units (PICUs). They manage critically ill newborns and children with conditions like respiratory distress, sepsis, and congenital anomalies.
Those with super-specializations like DM Neonatology or Pediatric Critical Care are better suited for leadership roles in such units, especially in tertiary care hospitals or children's hospitals.
