Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

• - Full term neonates of both genders from birth to the 28th day of life diagnosed with sepsis by history, clinical findings, laboratory findings, and blood culture. The

clinical findings included the presence of three or more of the following:

• (1) temperature instability (hypothermia, hyperthermia) .
• (2) respiratory alterations (grunting, intercostal retractions, apnea, tachypnea, cyanosis) .
• (3) cardiovascular alterations (bradycardia, tachycardia, poor perfusion, hypotension) .
• (4) neurologic alterations (hypotonia, lethargy, seizures)
• (5) gastrointestinal alterations (feeding intolerance, abdominal distension). CRP values >10 mg/L were considered to be positive.

Exclusion Criteria:

• - Preterm neonates .
• Neonates with CNS malformations, metabolic disorders, chromosomal abnormalities, intrauterine growth restriction, or birth asphyxia were excluded from the study

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Salivary c reactive protein in neonatal sepsis	Salivary C reactive protein of value as non invasive procedure in diagnosis of neonatal sepsis	28 days
Secondary	Mean platelet volume	Asses the validity of Mean Platlet Volume as marker of neonatal sepsis which is equal about ( 9 - 11.4 ) in septic group and about ( 7.5 - 8.5 ) in control group	28 days
