Comparing and analysis of the early-onset and late-onset neonatal sepsis / 中国综合临床

ABSTRACT

Objective To analyse the pathway of infection,risk factors,clinical characteristics and pathogenic bacteria distribution of neonatal sepsis.Methods Eighty-eight neonatal with sepsis were enrooled from January 2006 to December 2011 in the First Affiliated Hospital of Lanzhou University.According to disease stage,they were divided into early-onset sepsis group and late-onset sepsis groups.Results Respiratory infections in two groups was the majority (44.7％ vs.46.0％),and there was no significant difference (P =0.906).That premature birth,low birth weight infant,amniotic fluid pollution and asphyxia were risk factors for early-onset sepsis.The most common clinical characteristics in early-onset sepsis were eating less milk(57.9％,22/38) and had fever of the late-onset sepsis(42.0％,21/50).Forty-one cases were with positive blood culture and the rate was 46.6％ (41/88),the blood culture specimens were mainly Gram-positive bacteria in two group (75.0％ (15/20),90.4％ (19/21)).The most common pathogenic bacteria were Staphylococcus aureus and Coagulase-negative staphylococci.Conclusion Premature birth,low birth weight,meconium,asphyxia are risk factors of early onset neonatal sepsis.Early-onset sepsis often shows poor feeding,and late-onset sepsis in children prone to be fever.The common pathogenic germ of early-onset and late-onset sepsis are Grampositivebacteria,Staphylococcus aureus and coagulase-negative staphylococci common.As for neonate with highrisk factors,clinical features of early pathologic examination should be performed in order to further clarify the diagnosis and taking clinical therapy.
