Prevención y factores de riesgo asociados a sepsis neonatal temprana. Hospital Carlos Andrade Marín, 2021

ABSTRACT: Introduction: Early neonatal sepsis is a clinical entity that occurs during the first three days of birth, it represents a challenge for neonatologists, as it is considered the second cause of neonatal death worldwide. According to the Panamerican Health Organization, approximately 3 million neonatal deaths are registered annually, with 40% of deaths in children under 5 years of age, and 98% of cases come from developing countries. In Latin America and the Caribbean, about 9.8 cases per 1,000 live births are registered, in Ecuador neonatal sepsis is among the three main causes of neonatal death, with an incidence of 2.4%. Objective: The main purpose of this project is to determine the risk factors and prevention strategies associated to early neonatal sepsis in the neonatology area of the Hospital of Specialties Carlos Andrade Marín during the year 2021. Methodology: A descriptive, retrospective, and cross section study was developed, with a qualitative design; based on the data collection constituted by neonates with early neonatal sepsis. Results: We worked with 135 neonates where information was collected, through the data available in the AS400 system, where we found that: 55.6% were of male gender, 42.2% of the neonates corresponded to full-term newborns, 42.2% had extremely low birth weight, 80% of births were dystocia. Statistical significance was found between neonatal risk factors: preterm newborn and weight <2500 g and between maternal risk factors: premature rupture of membranes, urinary tract infection or vaginosis, fetid amniotic fluid, chorioamnionitis and maternal fever. Conclusions: The most affected neonates were premature children, with low birth weight and those who were exposed to maternal infections in the last trimester of pregnancy in the birth canal or those who had exposure to disruption of the amniotic membranes.
