Abstract

1798 pregnant women with their neonate off springs were evaluated in to two high and low risk grpups.Maternal data consisting of level of education, socioeconomic status, gestational age, duration of rupture of membrane at delivery, history of infections or meconium staining, leukocyte count> 18000, demographic and other data about the neonates were entered into the data sheets.Mean maternal age was 26.72±5.7 years (15-48), comprising of 8.7% illiterate, 50% having primary, 36.9% secondary and 4.5% >12 years of education. Monthly income in 47.4% women was more than 1500,000 Rials. Comparisons of literacy and socioeconomic status in high and low risk mothers were not significant (p> 0.05).Mean gestational age and birth weight of infants were 37.9±2.7 weeks (25-43), and 3043±665.9 g (700-5000) respectively. Neonates with positive blood cultures had mean gestational age and birth weight of 35±3 (28-40) weeks and 2367±878g respectively, out of whom 60% were less than 2500g and 70% were premature. 45.6% of infants were male and the most prevalent organisms in blood cultures were Staphylococcus Epidermidis 25 (43%) and Acinetobacter 17(29.3%).Prematurity was the most common (70%) and in 10 patients this factor was the only one observed. Comparison of prevalence of neonatal infection in high risk and low risk groups showed a significant statistical difference (P< 0.000) with a risk ratio of 22.5 (CI 95%: 8.97-56.8). In logistic regression analysis, prematurity, maternal fever & infection showed significant statistical difference and prematurity was the most important RISK FACTOR with an odds ratio of 12.5.
