Costs and cost-effectiveness of an infection prevention bundle to reduce neonatal sepsis and mortality in Zambia
The Sepsis Prevention in Neonates in Zambia (SPINZ) trial was a prospective observational cohort study conducted in the neonatal intensive care unit of the University Teaching Hospital in Lusaka, Zambia. Introduction of an infection prevention and control (IPC) bundle reduced hospital-associated mortality, total mortality, suspected sepsis, and confirmed bloodstream infections. This companion analysis was undertaken to analyze intervention costs …
Transmission dynamics of Klebsiella pneumoniae in a neonatal intensive care unit in Zambia before and after an infection control bundle
Klebsiella pneumoniae is a leading cause of neonatal sepsis in low- and middle-income countries, with antimicrobial resistance (AMR) significantly contributing to mortality. We used whole genome sequencing to explore the impact of an infection prevention and control (IPC) intervention on K. pneumoniae strains and transmission dynamics responsible for sepsis in a Zambian neonatal unit. Blood culture isolates were collected during the Sepsis Preven…
Phenotypic and genotypic antibiotic susceptibility profiles of Gram-negative bacteria isolated from bloodstream infections at a referral hospital, Lusaka, Zambia
Bloodstream infections (BSI) caused by antimicrobial-resistant (AMR) Gram-negative bacteria (GNB) are a significant cause of morbidity and mortality. Third-generation cephalosporins (3GCs) have been used as empiric treatment for BSI and other invasive infections for years; however, their overuse could promote the emergence of extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBLs). Thus, this study aimed to determine the epidemiological, clinical and microbiol…
