Surveillance should be conducted shortly apart (every 3-6 months) to update the causative organisms and their sensitivity spectrum in particular localities.The administration of organism specific antibiotics will be helpful in decreasing the number of multidrug resistant strains which are spreading due to the administration of broad spectrum antibiotics, being given to patients on empirical grounds. Aims & Objective: The aim of our study is to determine the bacterial pathogens commonly responsible for neonatal sepsis in our setup and to determine their antimicrobial spectrum of sensitivity. This will help us deciding which antibiotic should be administered e...
