Frequency, Bacteriological Profile, and Outcome of Neonatal Sepsis with Carbapenem-Resistant Gram-Negative Bacteria at the Tertiary Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, Ahvaz, Iran
Background: One of the leading causes of neonatal mortality in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) is neonatal sepsis caused by carbapenem-resistant gram-negative bacteria. Objectives: This study aimed to determine the frequency, bacterial profile, and outcome of carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative neonatal sepsis in southwest Iran. Methods: This 15-month retrospective cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted at a level 3 referral training hospital.
