Association of inflammatory biomarkers with subsequent clinical course in suspected late onset sepsis in preterm neonates

Association of inflammatory biomarkers with subsequent clinical course in suspected late onset sepsis in preterm neonates

Abstract Background Sepsis is a major health issue in preterm infants. Biomarkers are used to diagnose and monitor patients with sepsis, but C-reactive protein (CRP) is proven not predictive at onset of late onset neonatal sepsis (LONS) diagnosis.
