Amniotic fluid Gram stain and interleukin‐6 can predict early‐onset neonatal sepsis

Abstract: Aim: To clarify whether amniotic fluid findings (Gram stain and interleukin [IL]-6 level) can predict earlyonset neonatal sepsis (EONS) before delivery. Methods: We compared the sensitivity and specificity and the values of the area under the receiveroperating characteristic (AUROC) curve of maternal inflammatory responses and amniotic fluid findings using IL-6 and Gram stain to predict EONS. Patients who underwent amniocentesis for suspected intraamniotic infection (IAI) after 22 weeks and 0 days of gestation… Show more
