Neonatal Sepsis: An Update
Sepsis is the most common cause of neonatal mortality. As per National Neonatal-Perinatal Database (NNPD), 2002-2003, the incidence of neonatal sepsis in India was 30 per 1000 live births. Signs and symptoms of sepsis are nonspecific; therefore empirical antimicrobial therapy is promptly initiated after obtaining appropriate cultures. The early manifestations of neonatal sepsis are vague and il...

متن کاملDiagnostic Evaluation of Hematological Sepsis Score and Presepsin in Neonatal Sepsis
Background: Early detection of neonatal sepsis and categorization of patients based on clinical severity is not yet effectively achieved. Some hematological parameters are used to formulate a hematological scoring system (HSS) and a modified hematological scoring system (MHSS) to diagnose neonatal sepsis. A promising biomarker: Presepsin, or Soluble Cluster of Differentiation 14 SubType (sCD14-...
متن کاملNeonatal sepsis
Infection is a leading cause of mortality and morbidity in the newborn. The smaller and more preterm the baby, the higher the risk of infection and its consequences. Babies with risk factors or symptoms of infection should be screened and treated promptly. Group B streptococcus remains the leading cause of early onset infection. Late onset infection is predominated by coagulase negative staphyl...
