Discussion

Descriptive study examines neonatal sepsis outcomes in preterm infants, revealing complications like respiratory distress and feed intolerance.

Respiratory distress is the most common complication among preterm neonates with sepsis.
Complications show no significant relationship with gestational age (p = 0.991), but birth weight is significant (p = 0.010).
Preterm neonates exhibit various complications like necrotizing enterocolitis and intra-ventricular hemorrhage during hospitalization.
Observational analysis across a tertiary care hospital identified significant rates of adverse outcomes in male preterm neonates.

Memon et al. (2025) studied this question.
