Neonatal Infections
Catherine M. Bendel, M.D.
Associate Professor of Pediatrics
Director, Neonatal-Perinatal Medicine Fellowship Program
Questions?
• Why are infants,
especially premies,
more susceptible to
infections?
• What are the clinical
manifestations of
neonatal infections?
• Bacterial?
• HSV?
• How to prevent
infections?
• Antibiotics indications,
contraindications,
cautions, resistance,
etc.
• How to interpret labs?
• Any precautions with
lines?
Objectives
• To briefly review neonatal immunology and why
neonates are so susceptible to infections
• To review the epidemiology, clinical presentation,
diagnosis and treatment of the most common
bacterial and HSV neonatal infections.
• To review modes of infection prevention.
• To differentiate between preterm and term infants
in all these areas
“Prematurity is an infectious disease.”
- James Todd, M.D.
Why are infants,
especially premies,
more susceptible to
infections?
Neonatal Immune System
• All neonates relatively immunocompromised
• Immature and Ineffective:
– Antibodies
– Complement
– Neutrophils
– Skin / mucosal barriers

Antibodies
Infectious agent
Immunity
Figure 1.1 Antibodies (anti- foreign bodies) are produced by host while cells on contact with the invading micro-organism
which is acting as an antigen (e.g. generates antibodies). The individual may then be immune to further attacks.

increases with GA
• Most during 3rd
trimester
• No guarantee

Epidemiology
Neonatal Sepsis: Incidence
• 2/1000 live births with culture proven sepsis
– Bacterial / Viral / Fungal
– 80% infants develop bacterial sepsis
– 20% infants perinatally acquired viral infections
– ~ 25% of infected infants have meningitis
• Higher rate with preterm birth
– 26/1000 preterm infants with BW < 1000g
– 8-9/1000 preterm infants with BW 1000-2000g
Remington and Klein, Sixth Edition, 2006

• Late Onset Neonatal
Sepsis (LONS)
– Sepsis or meningitis
– 5 days to 3 months old
– Perinatal or postnatal
acquisition
– Lower mortality, 2-6%

Current Estimates of Annual GBS
Early-Onset Disease in the U.S.
(2001 provisional, from ABCs/EIP Network)
~4,400 cases prevented per year
1720 cases still occurring annually
70 - 90 deaths
Remains leading infectious cause of neonatal
morbidity and mortality
What do we know about trends in
“other pathogens”?
• Most studies: stable rates of ‘other’ sepsis
• Concerns for increased rates of E. coli, all gram negatives,
or amp-R infections
• Population-based (multicenter) studies find stable rates of
total non-GBS and E. coli
• One multicenter study of very LBW infants found a
decrease in GBS by 4.2 /1,000, but an increase in E coli
rates of 3.6/1,000 (Stoll et al, NEJM, 2002, 347:240-7)
• % of E. coli sepsis w/ amp resistance may be increasing
• Increases restricted to low birth weight or preterm
deliveries

Early Onset Neonatal Sepsis:
Risk Factors - Maternal Fever
• Maternal fever is a significant risk factor for
EONS and may add in the identification of
infected but initially asymptomatic infant.
• 5.36 = adjusted RR
• 25% of asymptomatic infants, with culture
positive sepsis, had maternal fever as the ONLY
criteria for evaluation.

Early Onset Neonatal Sepsis:
Signs/Symptoms - Fever
•
The infant with sepsis may have an elevated,
depressed or normal temperature.
•
Fever is seen in up to 50% of infected infants.
•
Fever is more common in term infants, while
hypothermia is more common in preterm infants
•
A single elevated temperature reading or fever as an
isolated finding is infrequently associated with sepsis.
•
Persistent fever for greater than 1 hour is more
frequently associated with infection.
•
Fever occurs more frequently with LONS or with viral,
rather than bacterial, sepsis.
Klein, Sem in Perinat, 5:3-8
Early Onset Neonatal Sepsis:
Laboratory Evaluation
•  Cultures 
• Chest Radiograph
• Complete Blood Cell Count
• Glucose
• Bilirubin
• Liver Function Tests
• Coagulation studies
• C-reactive Protein (CRP)
Early Onset Neonatal Sepsis:
Cultures -- Who and Which?
• Blood culture -- indicated in ALL infants with
suspected sepsis. Repeat cultures indicated if
initial culture positive.
• Urine culture -- low yield in EONS
– + in 1.6% EONS compared to 7.47% LONS
Klein, Sem in Perinat, 5:3-8
Early Onset Neonatal Sepsis:
Cultures -- Who and Which?
• CSF culture -- should always be considered
Meningitis frequently accompanies sepsis
- 50-85% meningitis cases have + blood culture
- Yield reportedly low if respiratory distress is the only
major sign of infection
- Specific signs & symptoms occur in less than 50% of
infants with meningitis
- Using “selective criteria” for obtaining CSF may result in
missed or delayed diagnosis in up to 37% of infants with
meningitis
Wiswell et al, Pediatrics, 1995

protein > 150 mg/dl
organisms on gram stain
Early Onset Neonatal Sepsis:
Complete Blood Cell Counts
• Is the CBC helpful as an indicator of early
onset neonatal sepsis?
– Thrombocytopenia frequently
associated with sepsis
– WBC may be high, low or “normal” -timing of the sample important
– Persistent low WBC more predictive of
sepsis than elevated WBC (ANC < 1200)
– I:T quotient unreliable
Early Onset Neonatal Sepsis:
Complete Blood Cell Counts
Early Onset Neonatal Sepsis:
Complete Blood Cell Counts
• Single or serial neutrophil values
DO NOT assist in the diagnosis of
EONS or determining the duration of
therapy
• 99% of asymptomatic, culturenegative neonates > 35 weeks GA had
1 or more “abnormal” WBC values
Early Onset Neonatal Sepsis:
C-Reactive Protein
Early Onset Neonatal Sepsis:
C-Reactive Protein
• Measure of inflammation -- NOT specific for infection
• Elevated CRP, > 10 mg/L (>1 mg/dl), highly associated with
sepsis --- but NOT diagnostic
• Limited by lack of “normal” reference values for <24 hours old
or preterm infants
• Trend with multiple samplings correlates with infection as
takes time to rise -- two samples ~24 hours apart useful
• Potentially useful when maternal antibiotics given pretreatment interferes with cultures

Early Onset Neonatal Sepsis:
C-reactive Protein
• CRP levels <10mg/L, determined >24 hours after beginning
therapy correctly identified 99% of infants not needing
further therapy.
• May be useful in determining end-point for “rule-out
sepsis” evaluations, especially with maternal antibiotic
treatment.
• CRP-guided determination of length of therapy, shortened
the treatment course for most infected infants without
increasing the rate of relapse.
• Limitations: no studies evaluating meningitis or infections
other than bacterial sepsis.
Early Onset Neonatal Sepsis:
Treatment & CRP
• “Exposure to antibiotics during labor did not
change the clinical spectrum of disease or onset
of clinical signs of infection within 24 hours of
birth for term infants with EOGBS infection.”
• Normal CRP values at 24 hours of age supported
these observations.

Early Onset Neonatal Sepsis:
Summary
• GBS is still the predominant organism isolated in EONS
• Our efforts at IAP have reduced, but not eliminated,
early onset GBS sepsis
• Obstetrical risk factors, including premature/near-term
delivery and maternal intrapartum fever, help to identify
the infants at highest risk for EONS
• Ancillary laboratory evaluations, including the CRP
value, may assist in determination of the most
appropriate length of therapy
Late Onset Neonatal Sepsis
Late Onset Neonatal Sepsis
• Perinatal acquisition with later onset
–
–
–
–
Term or preterm
Bacterial: GBS, Chlamydia
Viral: HSV, CMV, HepB, HIV
Fungal: Candida
• Nosocomial acquisition
– Health care associated infections
– Preterm or sick term infant
Late Onset GBS
• Transmission - Perinatally or postnatally -- intrapartum prophylaxis
or neonatal treatment of early onset disease does not decrease risk of late
onset disease
• Symptoms -
7days - 3 months. Typically 3-4 weeks old.
Occult bacteremia or meningitis most common. However, focal infections
(pneumonia, UTI, cellulitis, osteomylelitis, septic arthritis) may occur.
• Diagnosis - Culture of blood, sputum, urine, abscess or other body
fluid.
• Treatment - Penicillin, as with early onset disease.
Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV)
• Incidence
•
•
•
•
•
•
1/3000-20,000 live births
1/200 pregnant women
> 75% asymptomatic
Enveloped DS-DNA
75% HSV II
HSVI
• Transmission
• 5-8% transplacental (congenital)
• 85-90% perinatally
• Primary infection (risk 30-50%)
• Secondary infection (risk <5%)
• Impossible to distinguish 1o vs 2o
• 5-10% postnatally
• Parent, caregiver
• Usually non-genital - hand, mouth
• Nosocomial spread from other infants
via hands of health care professionals
HSV Specific Symptoms
1. Disseminated Disease
•
•
•
•
•
Multi-organ involvement
Sepsis syndrome, DIC
Liver, CNS, lung predominance
Severe liver & CNS dysfunction common
Wide temp variations characteristic
2. Localized Central Nervous System Disease
•
Seizures common
3. Disease localized to the skin, eye and mouth
•
•
•
•
Vesicles, cloudy cornea.conjunctivitis, ulcers
Onset 1-4 weeks of age
Clinical overlap exists
Skin lesions absent or appear late with
disseminated/CNS disease
HSV Diagnosis
• High index of suspicion
– History ±
– Age (1-4 weeks)
– Sepsis Syndrome unresponsive to antibiotic therapy
• PE - classic vesicular lesions
• Culture - readily grows within 1-3 days
– Mouth, nasopharynx, conjunctivae rectum -- swabs >48 hours of age
– Skin vesicles, urine, stool, blood and CSF
 PCR - diagnostic method of choice - best on CSF, other fluids possible
•
•
•
CSF pleocytosis (especially monos) and elevated protein
Coagulopathy/DIC, thrombocytopenia, severe liver dysfunction
EEG
HSV Therapy - Prognosis
• Acyclovir IV
– 21 days for disseminated or CNS
– 14 days for skin, eye and mouth
• Mimimal toxicity - primarily liver - large volume IV
• Decreases mortality with disseminated disease from
~75% to 25-40%
• Decreases morbidity from 90% to 65%
• Improvements in both mortality and morbidity
dependent upon early initiation of Acyclovir
