Advances in clinical management of neonatal sepsis

Abstract

Neonatal sepsis, as a significant cause of various complications and adverse outcomes in neonates, remains a serious health burden both domestically and internationally. Strategies such as antibiotic prophylaxis during delivery, the utilization of early-onset sepsis risk calculators, and quality improvement initiatives in neonatal wards are beneficial in alleviating the disease burden of neonatal sepsis. This paper provides a review of the epidemiology, risk factors, and recent advances in clinical management of neonatal sepsis.
