RESUMEN

Background: Neonatal sepsis is life-threatening disease; it represents a big problem duo to itsdifficult diagnosis. It is associated with high mortality rate if not treated promptly. It is therefore very critical to do early diagnosis and initiate adequate therapy


Objective was to make a flow cytometric evaluation of CD11b expression on peripheral blood neutrophils for early and rapid diagnosis of neonatal sepsis


Methodology: our study was carried out on 70 neonates and subdivided into 2 groups, study group consisted of 50 neonates and control group consisted of 20 apparent healthy neonates, three ml of blood were collected for evaluation of CD11b expression by flow cytometry, CBC, CRP determination, and for blood culture


Results: there was a significant increase in percentage expression of CD11b on peripheral blood neutrophils in group I [sepsis group] more than group II [control group] , CD11b expression level in % on peripheral blood neutrophils record the highest sensitivity and specificity for diagnosis of neonatal sepsis followed by CRP. Blood culture recorded the least sensitivity and specificity


Conclusion: flow cytometric detection of CD11b on peripheral blood neutrophils is a useful technique for early and rapid diagnosis of neonatal sepsis
