ABSTRACT
Objective:
This study was designed to identify the relative factors, bacteriological profile and their antibiotic susceptibility pattern of neonatal sepsis.Methods:
A retrospective survey was conducted on the clinical information, pathogen identification and antibiotic sensitivity results of 425 newborns with neonatal sepsis admitted to Nanjing Maternity and Child Health Care Hospital from 2010 to 2017. Of the 425 positive blood-cultures, 148 (34.82%) were early-onset neonatal sepsis (EOS) and 277 (65.18%) were late-onset neonatal sepsis (LOS). Clinical information and pathogen identification were compared between EOS and LOS. Antibiotic sensitivity of gram negative organisms (G(-)) and gram positive organisms (G(+)) were also detected.Results:
The rates of premature delivery (78.70%, n=218), low birth weights (67.15%, n=186) and cesarean delivery (59.57%, n=165) were significantly increased in LOS (P<0.05) compared with those rates in EOS, which were 41.89% (n=62), 37.84% (n=56) and 46.62% (n=69). Parturients fever (18.24%, n=27) and meconium like amniotic fluid (25.68%, n=38) were significantly increased in EOS (P<0.05) compared with those rates in LOS, which were 7.94% (n=22) and 5.42% (n=15). Among the identified pathogen, the incidence of G(-) and G(+) bacteria were 216 (50.83%) and 201 (47.29%) respectively, and the rest was Candida glabrata (1.88%, n=8). Escherichia coli 68 (16.00%) was the predominant isolate followed by Klebsiella pneumoniae (13.18%, n=56). The detection rate of Hemolytic staphylococcus (10.81%, n=16) was significantly increased in EOS (P<0.001) compared with LOS (1.44%, n=4). However, the incidence of Klebsiella pneumonia (5.88%, n=44) was higher in LOS (P=0.024) compared with EOS (8.11%, n=12). Most of the gram positive isolates exhibited high resistance to penicillin (90.32%-100.00%) and cephalosporin group antibiotics (25.00%-100.00%). Similarly, the majority of the gram negative isolates showed higher resistance to ampicillin (83.33%-100.00%), but susceptible to aminoglycosides (0-11.76%), quinolones (0-17.65%) and ß-lactams (0-5.88%).Conclusion:
Among the study population, the percent of preterm, low birth weight and cesarean section were higher in LOS while parturients fever and meconium-like amniotic fluid were higher in EOS. The pathogens with the highest detection rate were Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae. The results of antibiotic susceptibility test showed that common pathogens had high resistance to commonly used antibacterial drugs.Key words
