Overview

This cross-sectional analysis reveals antibiotic resistance trends in neonatal sepsis, highlighting significant associations with low birth weight.

Key Points

  • The study found a high prevalence of antibiotic resistance in neonatal sepsis, particularly against erythromycin and clindamycin.
  • A total of 477 infants were hospitalized, with 71.7% suffering from early-onset sepsis and 28.3% from late-onset sepsis.
  • Significant associations were identified between antibiotic resistance and factors like low birth weight and chest tube interventions.
  • The data indicate a notable decrease in antibiotic resistance trends in 2021, advocating for tailored antibiotic stewardship programs.
