Your precious new bundle of joy requires undivided care and tenderness. The Paediatric Neurology Department of Apollo Adlux Hospital provides the highest level of care and dedication while diagnosing and treating issues of the nervous system in infants, children, and adolescents. Our group of paediatricians and paediatric neurologists helps in the diagnosis and treatment of conditions like developmental delays, muscle tone disorders, other neuromuscular disorders, cerebrovascular disease, paediatric strokes, inflammatory and neuro-oncologic disorders, epilepsy and seizure disorders, and genetic disorders of the nervous system. Your kid needs to consult a paediatric neurologist since sleep difficulties can be an indication of underlying neurological conditions. To ensure that the treatment meets all of your child's needs, our knowledgeable team examines children's sleeping patterns. Our team is comprised of specialists in neurological and sleep disorders. With our sleep exams, we can determine and track your child's sleep habits in a comfortable way. We will create a comprehensive treatment plan for your child, using spearhead technology such as VEEG monitoring, which is performed in the hospital to more accurately determine the type(s) of seizures a child may have. The next generation is very valuable to us since they are the assets of the future.

Diagnostic tests in paediatric neurology may include a combination of medical history assessments, physical examinations, neuroimaging studies (such as MRI or CT scans), electroencephalography (EEG) to evaluate brain activity, genetic testing, metabolic screening, and neuropsychological evaluations. The specific tests recommended will depend on the child's symptoms, medical history, and suspected condition.
