Chengdu Women's and Children's Center Hospital
Chengdu Women's and Children's Center Hospital: Guardian of Maternal and Child Health in Southwest China
I. Hospital Overview
Chengdu Women's and Children's Center Hospital stands as the largest and most comprehensive tertiary-level women's and children's specialty hospital in Southwest China. Founded in 1944 (originally known as Chengdu Municipal Maternal and Infant Health Hospital), it has evolved over more than 80 years into a national-level women's and children's health service institution integrating medical care, teaching, research, prevention, health preservation, and rehabilitation. The hospital operates three core campuses: the Central Campus (1617 Riyue Avenue, Qingyang District), Tianfu Campus (No. 666, Section 1, Muhua Road, Shuangliu District), and Shiyijie Campus (No. 32, Shiyijie, Qingyang District). With a total floor area exceeding 500,000 square meters and over 2,800 open beds, the hospital serves more than 6 million outpatient and emergency visits annually. Its obstetrics, neonatology, and pediatrics departments rank among the nation's top in annual service volume.
As an affiliate of West China Second University Hospital, Sichuan University, a teaching hospital of Chongqing Medical University, and a National Standardized Residency Training Base (Obstetrics & Gynecology, Pediatrics), the hospital upholds its mission of “Caring for Women's Health, Safeguarding Children's Growth.” Focusing on “lifecycle maternal and child health management,” it maintains leading domestic capabilities in perinatal medicine, neonatal critical care, and pediatric complex disease treatment, serving as a “lifeline for women and children” in Southwest China.
II. Technical Advantages: Precision Focus, Leading the Frontier of Maternal and Child Health
Guided by the development philosophy of “Comprehensive Maternal and Child Health, Holistic Wellness,” the hospital addresses the needs across women's entire life cycle (pre-marital, pregnancy, postpartum) and children's growth stages (neonatal, infant, school-age), establishing multiple core technical strengths:
• Perinatal Medicine and High-Risk Pregnancy Management: Established an integrated management system covering “preconception-pregnancy-delivery-postpartum” stages. Features a high-risk pregnancy clinic and fetal medicine center, offering complex twin pregnancy management, placental implantation disease surgery, and non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT). Achieves a 99.2% success rate in high-risk pregnancy rescues, ranking among the nation's top.
• Neonatal Critical Care: Equipped with internationally advanced neonatal ventilators, hypothermia therapy devices, and amplitude-integrated EEG (aEEG) systems, the Neonatology Department provides comprehensive care for extremely preterm infants (gestational age <28 weeks) and extremely low birth weight infants (<1500g). Survival rates for extremely preterm infants exceed 90%, reaching advanced domestic standards.
• Minimally Invasive Gynecology & Oncology: The Gynecology Department performs minimally invasive procedures, including laparoscopic radical hysterectomy for cervical/ovarian cancer and hysteroscopic uterine malformation correction, with over 90% of surgeries being minimally invasive. Multidisciplinary team (MDT) approaches for gynecologic cancers (e.g., endometrial cancer, vulvar cancer) have significantly improved five-year survival rates.
• Pediatric Critical Care and Complex Diseases: The Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU) is equipped with extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) and continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) to treat critical conditions like severe pneumonia, fulminant myocarditis, and major trauma. The Pediatric Hematology-Oncology Department provides standardized chemotherapy for childhood leukemia and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, achieving a 95% remission rate for acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

VII. International Patient Testimonials: “Professional and Warm, Exceeding Expectations”
In recent years, the hospital has welcomed female and pediatric patients from countries including the United States, Canada, Australia, and Singapore, receiving numerous heartwarming reviews:
• “I became pregnant while working in Chengdu and was diagnosed with placenta accreta due to advanced maternal age. Thanks to the meticulous care of your obstetrics team, I delivered safely. Doctors thoroughly explained each risk in English, and nurses accompanied me daily for fetal monitoring—making me feel at home in a foreign land.” — Laura (38, high-risk pregnancy), USA
• “My daughter was admitted at 27 weeks due to preterm birth. The neonatal team used state-of-the-art equipment and treatment protocols, enabling her to leave the incubator healthy after 40 days. The International Medical Department coordinator translated all medical records for us and even taught us infant massage techniques—truly thoughtful!” — Michael (35, parent of preterm infant), family member from Canada
