NCT03795285

Brief Summary

Neonatal sepsis (NS) is a rather serious but relatively common health problem. Despite recent advances in the treatment of neonatal infection, mortality and comorbidities remain high.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • The mean difference of neutrophil CD64 expression and sTREM-1 before and after treatment

    better understanding of neutrophil CD64 role as an essential player in pathogenesis of neonatal sepsis and the role of and sTREM-1 in pathogenesis of neonatal sepsis

    72 hours

Study Arms (2)

Septic neonates:

fifty neonates with sepsis.

Diagnostic Test: Expression of neutrophil CD64

Controls:

twenty healthy neonates.

Diagnostic Test: Expression of neutrophil CD64

Interventions

Expression of neutrophil CD64 will be measured by Flow cytometry. In addition, sTREM-1 will be measured in the serum by ELISA

Controls:Septic neonates:

Sampling MethodNon-Probability Sample
Study Population

Neonatal sepsis

You may qualify if:

  • Sepsis was defined as a positive blood culture in infants with clinical and laboratory findings of infection. Manifestations of sepsis include poor suckling, sleepiness, respiratory distress, apnea, poor perfusion, cyanosis, bradycardia, fever or hypothermia, feeding intolerance, and neurological signs (as seizures). Routine sepsis evaluations included complete blood count, C-reactive protein, and blood culture.

You may not qualify if:

  • malformations
  • prematurity
  • Apgar score less than seven
  • on antibiotics treatment before the start of the study
