Assessment of three antibiotic combination regimens against Gram-negative bacteria causing neonatal sepsis in low- and middle-income countries
Several recent studies highlight the high prevalence of resistance to multiple antibiotic classes used in current treatment regimens for neonatal sepsis and new treatment options are urgently needed. We aimed to identify potential new combination antibiotic treatment regimens by investigating the drug-resistance and genetic profiles of the most frequently isolated Gram-negative bacteria causing neonatal sepsis in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) in the NeoOBS study.
