Sepsis is a major contributor to neonatal mortality, particularly in low-income and middle-income countries (LMICs). WHO advocates ampicillin-gentamicin as first-line therapy for the management of sepsis. In BARNARDS observational cohort study sepsis antimicrobial resistance LMICs, common pathogens were characterised via whole genome sequencing (WGS) profiles. this substudy BARNARDS, we aimed assess use efficacy empirical antibiotic therapies commonly used LMICs

Abstract Mandatory Minute Ventilation (MMV) is a valuable rescue mode for late preterm and term infants experiencing challenges with hyperventilation. In this prospective study, seven were ventilated using MMV as mode. Infants initially under Pressure Control-Assist/Control Volume Guarantee (PC-AC + VG) transitioned to Control-MMV (PC-MMV) Drager Babylog VN 600. All or term, without major congenital malformations. Our findings suggest that transitioning PC-MMV resulted in improved gas...
