Abstract：
BACKGROUND:Streptococcus agalactiae or streptococcus group B (SGB) is the main etiologic agent of early neonatal sepsis. A multicenter study was performed with the aim of determining the incidence and characteristics of this disease in our medium and contribute the design of an adequate prevention protocol. METHODS:Ten hospitals and two primary health care centers were implicated in the study; 103 microbiology confirmed episodes of SGB neonatal sepsis (blood and/or LCR positive) were reported from 1994 to 1996. RESULTS:The incidence of early SGB neonatal sepsis was 1.48/1,000 live births with a mortality of 8.7%. The cultures, for detecting the state of the SGB carrier were performed in only 26 (25%) of the patients. At least one of the factors described for risk of perinatal SGB infection was observed in 46% of the mothers, with the most frequent being prolonged amniorrhea (26%), intrapartum fever (17%), and early delivery (14%). At the time of delivery only 10.7% of the mothers received endovenous antibiotherapy. CONCLUSIONS:From these results the following recommendations have been made: a) detection of SGB carriers by the systematic practice of blood cultures in the last weeks of gestation and b) the administration of intrapartum antibiotic prophylaxis in both early births (< 37 weeks) and in all the SGB carriers should be undertaken. With these measures we aim to decrease the neonatal infections by streptococcus group B.
