Sepse Neonatal: Mortalidade Em Município Do Sul Do Brasil, 2000 a 2013

Abstract: ABSTRACT:Objective: To describe the neonatal mortality coefficient attributed to sepsis and other causes, and to report the maternal, neonatal and death characteristics of newborn infants that died in the city of Londrina, Paraná, in Southern Brazil.Methods: This is a cross-sectional study with a time series analysis. Neonatal deaths that contained neonatal sepsis records in any field of the death certificate between the years 2000 and 2013 were studied.

“…Nevertheless, it is recognized that neonatal sepsis is underreported owing to the discrepancies in its definition and surveillance worldwide (12,13). Additionally, in a recent study performed in the south of Brazil, a neonatal sepsis rate of 30.7% was responsible for neonatal mortality, which is also a high rate (14). Furthermore, the diagnosis of maternal infection in a woman with preterm labor does not necessarily imply that it is the only cause of prematurity.…”

“…Additionally, reference numbers are di cult to draw in, as many details and the place of study are not clear or not provided. In a study from 2018 carried out in Brazil, a neonatal mortality rate with sepsis involvement reported 2.3 deaths per one thousand live births [194]. Given this context, the mortality in the cited study [48] appears high and further explanation would have been highly desired.…”

“…Several authors [22][23][24] state that the death rate due to sepsis is high and the risk of sepsis increases in prematurity in proportion to the decrease in birth weight; evaluation of levels of IL-6 and CPR for the diagnosis of early sepsis may explain the difference between septic and non-septic patients. Neonatal sepsis, characterized by systemic signs of infection in the first month of life, remains an important clinical syndrome, with high mortality and morbidity rates; the use of IL-6 and CRP in combination have been shown to be useful in the early diagnosis of sepsis in newborns.…”
