However, rates of LOS have remained relatively the same.

Oct 4, 2021 · Results: In the period, early neonatal sepsis occurred in 46 newborns, corresponding to 1.8% of all newborns admitted to the neonatal unit, with a prevalence of 4/1,000 live births. Culture confirmed sepsis ocurred in three patients (0.3/1,000 live births), with the following agents: S. pneumoniae, S. epidermidis and S. agalactiae.
