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 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...
متن کاملNeonatal sepsis
Neonatal sepsis may be categorized as early or late onset. Eighty-five percent of newborns with early-onset infection present within 24 hours, 5% present at 24-48 hours, and a smaller percentage of patients present within 48-72 hours. Onset is most rapid in premature neonates. Early onset sepsis syndrome is associated with acquisition of microorganisms from the mother. Transplacental infection ...
متن کاملNeonatal sepsis
Neonatal sepsis continues to be a common and significant health care burden, especially in very-low-birth-weight infants (VLBW<1500 g). Though intrapartum antibiotic prophylaxis has decreased the incidence of early-onset group B streptococcal infection dramatically, it still remains a major cause of neonatal sepsis. Moreover, some studies among VLBW preterm infants have shown an increase in ear...
متن کاملHematological and Biological Markers of Neonatal Sepsis
Septicemia in neonates is the commonest cause of mortality. Early recognition and diagnosis of neonatal sepsis remains a challenge because of the variable and nonspecific clinical presentation. The laboratory criteria are often non specific and not fully reliable. The objective of this review is to highlight the various hematological and biological markers of neonatal sepsis. We searched ...
