Neonatal late-onset sepsis, Characteristics, Laboratory, OutcomeAbstract
Neonatal Late-Onset Sepsis (LOS) is a leading cause of mortality in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU). The microbial characteristics of LOS are of primary importance in guiding clinical antisepsis practice, and strategies to prevent and treat neonatal LOS, in turn, influence the pattern of LOS pathogens. This study is a retrospective descriptive study with a cross-sectional approach conducted between 2016 until 2020 in the neonatal ward (level II-III) of the Sanglah General Hospital, Bali. Data collected consists of demography, clinical characteristics, laboratory results, and outcomes. Subjects in this study dominated by male (64%), gestational age > 37 weeks (56%), born ≥ 2.500 grams (54%), last mother education mostly in Senior High School (56%), spontaneous delivery method (54%) and 31 (62%) subjects were referral from other hospital and primary health care. Most of the subjects were lethargic (68%) and 15 (30%) subjects were died. Laboratory finding normal leukocyte, neutrophil, lymphocyte, hemoglobin, thrombocyte and IT ratio but have higher procalcitonin result. Poor outcome group were dominated by male, smaller gestational age, VLBW, and neonates who experience lethargy, temperature instability, respiratory distress and got positive blood culture.
