Factores de riesgo maternos- fetales asociados a Sepsis en el recién nacido

Abstract

Neonatal sepsis (NS) is a condition which is nowadays a major challenge in obstetrics, gynecology, pediatrics and neonatology units due to its significant morbidity and mortality, and it is also associated with many risk factors (RF) such as chorioamnionitis, last trimester urinary tract infection (UTI), leukorrhea, premature rupture of membranes (PROM), preeclampsia, eclampsia, deficient prenatal and fetal monitoring such as prematurity and underweight at birth, caused by a premature immune system. NS is among the main preventable diseases as a reason for maternal death and fetal morbidity. The main objective of this research is to determine the maternal-fetal risk factors associated with sepsis in newborns (NB) through a systematic review of up-to-date references. In this research, a descriptive bibliographical overview of articles and published research papers related to this topic was carried out. Results: They will be carried out through discussing the bibliographical overview. Conclusions: They shall be precise and understandable, as well as related to the topic.
