“…The risk of IN is multiplied by 5 if the weight is less than 1000 g. In Brazil, the lower the birthweight, the higher the risk of nosocomial infection. Indeed, birth weight < 1000 g multiplies the risk of NI by 8.5, whereas a Saudi study did not find low birth weight (birth weight < 1500 g) as a risk factor for NI (OR = 0.68) [16].…”

Background and AimNosocomial infections are one of the major causes of morbidity in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU). Known risk factors include birth weight, gestational age, severity of illness and its related length of stay, and instrumentation.Objective:The purpose of this article is to determine the occurrence of Nosocomial Infections (NIs), including infection rates, main infection sites, and common microorganisms.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted between June 2015 and December 2016.Results:The incidence of nosocomial infection was 16%. The primary reasons for admission were intauterin growth retardation (52.5%).Klebsiella Pneumoniaewas the most commonly identified agent in the blood cultures and in the hospital unit (43.6%). The mortality rate from nosocomial infection was 52.6%. The proportion of infected newborns with a lower than normal birth weight was predominant (58.13%).Conclusion:Thus, prevention of bacterial infection is crucial in these settings of unique patients. In this view, improving neonatal management is a key step, and this includes promotion of breast-feeding and hygiene measures.

“…The risk is major beyond 10 days of ventilation. In Egypt, a prospective incidence study showed that the use of mechanical ventilation increases the risk of developing NI in newborns by a factor of 5.4 [16].…”

Introduction: Health care-associated infection is an infection acquired during the care delivered in the hospital or in any other care establishment which was neither present, nor in incubation at the admission of the patient or at the time of delivering the care or which does not manifest itself only after the patient has been discharged or an infection contracted by the professional in the course of his duties. Objectives: To identify mean causative germs and to determine their sensitivity to antibiotics and to identify the risk factors of health care-associated infection. Material and methods: It was about a prospective longitudinal study conducted from November 1, 2017 to April 1, 2018 (6 months) in all children admitted to the pediatric surgery service. Non-consenting parents and outpatient necrosectomy case have not been included in this study. Results: This study included 200 patients, of whom 30 experienced the hospital acquired infections with an infection rate of 15%. The surgical site infection was the most common type, with 16 cases (53.3%), followed by burns in 13 cases (43.3%) and urinary tract infection in 1 case (3.3%). The average age of patients with infection was 56.33 ± 48.66 months with extremes of 1 and 180 months. The sex ratio was 1.30 for infected patients and was 1.83 for uninfected patients. The main bacteria responsible for surgical site infection were: Escherichia coli (4 cases), Acinetobacter baumanii (3 cases), Klebsiella pneumoniae (2 cases), Staphylococcus aureus (2 cases), Enterobacter cloacae (1 case), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (1 case) and Enterobacter faecalis (1 case). Among burn patients, the most frequent germs were: Acinetobacter baumanii (7 cases), Klebsiella pneumoniae (6 cases), Staphylococcus aureus (6 cases), Escherichia coli (4 cases
