Since inflammatory mediators play a crucial role in the pathophysiology of sepsis so anti-inflammatory treatment, Montelukast, could be a beneficial therapy. The investigators will conduct this pilot, open-labeled, randomized controlled intervention trial on 40 newborns admitted to NICU. The study
BACKGROUND Health-care workers face an elevated risk of exposure to - and infection with - SARS-CoV-2. It is imperative to ensure the safety, health and fitness of hospital personnel in order to safeguard continuous patient care. Strategies to prevent COVID-19 or to mitigate its clinical
Group B Streptococcus (GBS), is a facultative gram positive diplococcus originally known for causing bovine mastitis and was not demonstrated to be a human pathogen until 1938 (1). In the 1970s, GBS emerged as the leading cause of neonatal morbidity and mortality, with a frequency of 2-3 cases per
This randomized-controlled trial conducted in Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital, Jakarta, Indonesia aims to determine the efficacy of prophylactic IgM-Enriched IVIG in preventing EONS. A total of 70 very low birth weight (VLBW) neonates with risk factors for EONS including maternal factors of premature
Neonatal sepsis remains one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality both among term and preterm infants. Although advances in neonatal care have improved survival and reduced complications in preterm infants, sepsis still contributes significantly to mortality and in Neonatal Intensive Care
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the use of a transcervical foley catheter, in combination with the standard oral misoprostol regimen will result in a decreased primary cesarean delivery rate among women with a cervical dilation of 2 centimeters of less who require induction of
More than 40% of under-five deaths globally occur in the neonatal period, resulting in 3.1 million newborn death each year.
The majority of these deaths usually occur in low income countries . On the other hand, the survivors of neonatal sepsis are vulnerable to short- and long term
introduction Neonatal sepsis is an invasive bacterial infection that occurs in newborns between first and nineteenth day of life. Neonatal sepsis is one of the most frequent causes of morbidity and mortality in newborns[1]. Worldwide, incidence of sepsis in newborns varies between 1- 10 cases per
This is a randomized controlled trial. It will be provisionally conducted on 55 neonates admitted to the neonatal intensive care units (NICUs) of Ain Shams University Hospitals, Cairo, Egypt.
Inclusion criteria:
The study will include:Preterm infants (less than 37 weeks gestational age). Evidence of
1. Introduction Neonatal sepsis is a clinical syndrome of bacteremia with systemic symptoms and signs of infection in the first 28 days of life. In recent national studies, the incidence of suspected neonatal sepsis among admitted neonates varied from 32.9% to 45.9% with a higher incidence in
Preterm delivery occurs before 37 weeks of gestation. Worldwide the preterm birth rate is estimated to be about 11% and in Israel the preterm birth rate is approximately 7% (1, 2). Preterm birth is the leading direct cause of neonatal death (death in the first 28 days of life), and is responsible

Study Design:
The Academic Hospital Paramaribo (AZP) has the largest perinatal care facility in Suriname. Recently, the AZP opened the country's only neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). This study aims to include all neonates presenting here and at the high and medium care facilities with clinical
Since 1927, it has been observed that BCG-vaccinated neonates have lower all-cause mortality rates. This heterologous or non-specific effect within the first 6-12 months of life has been demonstrated in randomised and observational studies in low income countries with high childhood mortality rates.
1. INTRODUCTION AND RATIONALE
The live attenuated Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) vaccine protects against extrapulmonary infection with Mycobacterium tuberculosis and against leprosy [1, 2]. It has been shown that vaccination with BCG also leads to non-specific protective effects: early
