Bacteriological profile, antibiotic susceptibility pattern and other factors related to neonatal meningitis: A cross-sectional hospital-based study from West Bengal
Abstract:Background: Neonatal sepsis and meningitis is an important cause of neonatal mortality and morbidity especially in the developing countries. Bacteriological profile of meningitis and antibiotic sensitivity pattern may vary from one region to another.
Aims and Objectives: We have planned this study to know the etiological agent of neonatal meningitis with its antibiotic sensitivity profile and to evaluate some other associated risk factors of meningitis.
Materials and Methods: This observational, cross-sectiona… Show more
