| Summary, etc. | Abstract:<br/><br/>The study investigates the prevalence and risk factors of neonatal sepsis among newborns at Bugando Medical Centre (BMC). Neonatal sepsis is a significant cause of neonatal mortality, accounting for 35% of neonatal deaths globally. Despite various measures by WHO, the prevalence remains high in Sub-Saharan Africa at 36%, similar to Tanzania's 31.4%.<br/><br/>The objective was to assess the prevalence and associated risk factors of neonatal sepsis among neonates admitted to BMC. The study employed a hospital-based retrospective cross-sectional review method, examining data from December 2023 to May 2024.<br/><br/>A total of 182 neonates were included in the study, with a mean age of 7 days. Of these, 67.03% were female, 51.6% were preterm, 36.26% had normal birth weight, 59.3% had an Apgar score of less than 8, and 50.5% were resuscitated at birth. The prevalence of neonatal sepsis was found to be 34.1%. Significant risk factors included premature rupture of membrane (p=0.044), maternal UTI/STI (p=0.000), prolonged labor (p=0.001), home delivery (p=0.007), and neonatal resuscitation (p=0.017).<br/><br/>In conclusion, the prevalence of neonatal sepsis at BMC is high and is associated with several risk factors including premature rupture of membranes, prolonged labor, home delivery, maternal UTI/STI, and neonatal resuscitation.<br/> |
