Bacteriological Profile and Antibiotic Susceptibility Pattern of Neonatal Septicaemia in a Tertiary Care Hospital
Neonatal sepsis is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality among neonates worldwide. World Health Organization has estimated that 1.6 million deaths occur globally every year due to neonatal infections and 40% of all neonatal deaths occur in developing countries (WHO report 2006). In India, the incidence of blood culture proven sepsis was reported as 8.5 per 1,000 live births for the yea...
متن کاملBacteriological profile of neonatal sepsis in a tertiary-care hospital of Northern India.
With an objective to study the bacteriological profile of neonatal sepsis a retrospective study was conducted in the neonatal unit of a referral teaching hospital in Northern India. Among neonates born over 5-year period (n=22363) incidence of culture-positive sepsis was 7.5/1000 live births (7.5%).

متن کاملBacteriological Profile and Antibiotic Susceptibility Pattern of Neonatal Sepsis at a Teaching Hospital in Bayelsa State, Nigeria
BACKGROUND Sepsis is one of the most common causes of neonatal hospital admissions and is estimated to cause 26% of all neonatal deaths worldwide. While waiting for results of blood culture, it is necessary to initiate an empirical choice of antibiotics based on the epidemiology of causative agents and antibiotic sensitivity pattern in a locality. OBJECTIVE To determine the major causative or...
متن کاملBacteriological profile and antibiotic susceptibility pattern of common isolates of neonatal sepsis, Ho Municipality, Ghana-2016
Background Globally, 4 million neonates die annually, with one-third of such deaths occurring as a result of infections. In 2011, there were 7.2million deaths in children below 5 years globally, and a proportion of 40% of these deaths occurred in neonates. Sepsis was reported to account for one-third of these deaths.
