Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Incidence of late sepsis For the purposes of the research, the diagnosis will be instituted when sepsis occurs after 72 hours of life. The participant should present clinical signs of infection including the following categories and at least one sign in each of the three categories: a) General: fever (temperature above 37.7 ° C), apnea (respiratory pause less than 15 seconds), tachypnea (respiratory rate above 60 movements per minute), respiratory discomfort (use of accessory musculature to breathe); b) Laboratory: leukopenia (decrease of leukocytes lower than 7000), leukocytosis (above 12000), increase of C-reactive protein (over 5); and c) Hemodynamics: hypotension (decrease in mean arterial pressure) tachycardia (heart rate above 160 per minute), altered skin perfusion (capillary filling time over 3 seconds).
