ABSTRACT
Between February 1983 and February 1991, 471 blood cultures from newborns with neonatal infection, aged from 0 to 30 days, admitted to the Pediatric Hospital Albert Royer, Dakar, were performed. In 141 (30.3 percent) cases, one bacterium was isolated. Three major causative organisms were identified Klebsiella spp (28.6 percent), E. coli (19.5 percent) and S. aureus (17.4 percent). Altogether, we isolated 99 (69.2 percent) enterobacteria, 7 (4.8 percent) other Gram negative bacilli and 37 (25.8 percent) Gram positive cocci among which 25 S. aureus, 10 streptococci (7 group B, 2 group D, 1 group A and 2 pneumococci). The most efficient antibiotics were amikacin and third generation cephalosporins.
