ABSTRACT
Objective:To study the clinical characteristics of neonatal sepsis caused by raoultella ornithinolytica.Methods:From January 2010 to December 2020, clinical data of seven cases of neonates with raoultella ornithinolytica sepsis in the Department of Neonatology of our hospital were analyzed. Literature published from the establishment of the databases to December 31, 2020 were searched and reviewed on this topic. The databases included PubMed, Web of Science, Embase database, Wanfang Database, CNKI, National Science and Technology Library and Chinese Science Paper Online.Results:Among the 7 cases admitted to our hospital, 6 male and 1 female, 6 premature and 1 full-term small-for-gestational-age (SGA), 6 patients presented with lethargy, 5 patients had fever and 3 showed dyspnea. 4 patients had necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC), 1 congenital intestinal malrotation, 1 congenital jejunal atresia, 1 intestinal adhesion and stricture. 4 patients had history of surgery. Leucocytosis was found in 3 cases and leukopenia in 1 case. Thrombocytopenia and increased inflammatory indicators were found in all cases. All 7 patients recovered and were discharged. 4 articles on 4 newborn cases (3 males, 1 female including two premature infants) were found for literature review. 3 cases had skin flushing, 3 cases showed dyspnea, 2 cases had fever and 1 case presented with lethargy. 1 case received surgery for congenital heart disease. Leucocytosis was found in 2 cases, leukopenia in 1 case, thrombocytopenia in 2 cases and elevated inflammatory indicators in 3 cases. 1 patient died due to septic shock and the other three recovered and were discharged.Conclusions:Raoultella ornithinolytica neonatal sepsis may occur in infants with intestinal comorbidities, history of invasive procedures, premature birth or full-term SGA and congenital malformations. Most anti-infective therapies are effective. However, if the patient had septic shock, the prognosis is poor.
