Evaluation of Immature Neutrophil Ratio and Calprotectin Level for the Diagnosis of Neonatal Sepsis
Background: Sepsis is defined as a systematic inflammatory reaction against infection. Despite the recent advances in medical and pediatric sciences, sepsis remains a significant life-threatening health issue. The main problem associated with this disorder is the nonspecific and non-discriminative symptoms of noninfectious diseases. The present study aimed to introduce diagnostic parameters of ...
متن کاملEosinopenia and Neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio as diagnostic tools in neonatal early onset sepsis -a single center observational study
Background and Objective: Neonatal sepsis is associated with high mortality and has a favourable outcome when recognized and treated in a timely manner. In resource-limited settings, there is a need for an affordable test with a short turnaround time for timely diagnosis of sepsis. The aim of this study was to find out the role of eosinopenia and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) in screenin...
متن کاملNeonatal 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 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 ...
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...
