According to statistics, the number of newborns with infections is increasing day by day. There are many ways and many causes leading to neonatal infections. It can be neonatal infection through the placenta, neonatal infection through the amniotic membrane or neonatal infection during childbirth.

The immune system of newborns is not fully developed to fight pathogens, so they can get postpartum infections due to various causes. If postpartum infections are not detected and treated early, they can seriously affect the health of newborns, increasing the risk of postpartum death.

Neonatal infections are infections that occur in newborns up to 28 days of age. They are the second leading cause of death in newborns.

Neonatal infection is one of the dangerous diseases that can cause death in children. Early diagnosis to provide timely and appropriate treatment is very important.

Neonatal infections are infections that occur from birth to 28 days of age, with causes before birth, during birth, and after birth. Neonatal infections have the second highest mortality rate after respiratory distress syndrome in newborns.

Neonatal sepsis accounts for 10-20% of neonatal morbidity. It is the second leading cause of death in newborns after respiratory distress syndrome. Neonatal sepsis can be treated at major medical centers with neonatal intensive care units (NICUs) and specialized medical staff.

Late neonatal infection is an infection that occurs after the 5th day after birth. The main clinical forms are meningitis, sepsis, local infection (urinary tract infection, skin infection, mucosa infection, osteomyelitis, necrotizing enterocolitis).

Infections in newborns can be life-threatening. Therefore, preventing infections in newborns is a very important issue for pregnant women from pregnancy to childbirth and nursing.

Sepsis can affect anyone at any age, but it tends to occur more frequently in the elderly and young children. Children, especially infants and young children, can be susceptible to sepsis, which can cause tissue damage, organ failure, and injury.

Neonatal sepsis is a dangerous disease with a high mortality rate, second only to respiratory distress syndrome. Therefore, early diagnosis based on the results of neonatal sepsis diagnostic tests is very necessary for timely intervention.
