  • Klinika okužb pri novorojenčkih = Neonatal infections - clincal manifestations
    Kornhauser-Cerar, Lilijana, 1958- ; Mole, Helena
    The incidence of infection is higher in the neonatal period than at any other time in life and infections contribute to neonatal morbidity and mortality substantially. They are attributable to ... increased exposure to maternal organisms during delivery (colonizing the genital tract and rectum), to the immaturity of immune mechanisms, and increased susceptibility of the skin and mucous surfaces to trauma. The clinical signs of neonatal bacterial sepsis arenon-specific and may be clinically indistiguishable from those occuring in non-infectious conditions, as well as being very similar to the signs of severe viral and fungal infections. Early-onset infection (within 48 hours of birth) is often associated with respiratory distress and babies are more likely to be shocked, whereas the onset of symptoms in late-onset sepsis is often more insidious. Peripartum primary maternal viral infection is associated with severe disease in newborn, which can be rapidly fatal. Fungal infections mainly affect preterm infants, particularly those who have receivedprolonged treatment with antibiotics, total parenteral nutrition, or needed ventilatory support. As rapid deterioration is usual in the newborn with bacterial sepsis, empirical treatment with antibiotics must be started early on suspicion of sepsis.
