What is Early Neonatal Sepsis in Low Birthweight Infants about?
This study investigates the incidence of early neonatal sepsis (EONS) and its predictors among low birth weight neonates in Northwest Ethiopia, revealing a high incidence rate of 15.6 per 100 neonatal days. Key predictors identified include spontaneous vaginal delivery, maternal history of UTI/STI, resuscitation, perinatal asphyxia, prematurity, and birth weight under 1000 grams. The findings emphasize the need for enhanced infection prevention strategies and targeted screening for high-risk neonates.
