The Effect of Probiotics on Late-Onset Sepsis in Very Preterm Infants: A Randomized Clinical Trial
Background Late onset sepsis is a frequent complication of prematurity, associated with increased mortality and morbidity. Probiotics may prevent late onset sepsis in premature infants. The aim of this study was to determine prophylactic effect of oral probiotics in prevention of late onset sepsis of very preterm infants. Materials and Methods This study was a randomized, double blinded, placeb...
متن کاملRoutine immunisation of preterm infants.
Fifty one preterm infants (26-36 weeks' gestation) were enrolled in a study of their immunological responses to diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis, and polio antigens eight to 12 weeks after their primary courses had been completed. Samples from 21 infants born at full term were also analysed. Many infants were able to start immunisation at 3 months of age. Premature infants who are immunised as so...
متن کاملModerately preterm, late preterm and early term infants: research needs.
In spite of increased appreciation that all preterm infants and early term infants are at higher risk for mortality and morbidities compared with their term counterparts, there are many knowledge gaps affecting optimal clinical care for this vulnerable population. This article presents a research agenda focusing on the systems biology, epidemiology, and clinical and translational sciences on th...
متن کاملProbiotics for prevention of necrotizing enterocolitis in preterm infants.
BACKGROUND Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) and nosocomial sepsis are associated with increased morbidity and mortality in preterm infants. Through prevention of bacterial migration across the mucosa, competitive exclusion of pathogenic bacteria, and enhancing the immune responses of the host, prophylactic enteral probiotics (live microbial supplements) may play a role in reducing NEC and associ...
متن کاملModerately preterm infants and determinants of length of hospital stay.
BACKGROUND Moderately preterm infants account for a large proportion of admissions and bed-days in neonatal units (NU). Management of these infants varies and determinants of length of stay are poorly studied. OBJECTIVE To determine postmenstrual age at hospital discharge for moderately preterm infants and its relation to perinatal risk factors and to organisation of care. METHODS Populatio...
