Prevalence and factors associated with neonatal sepsis in Mali: a cross-sectional study
The prevalence of sepsis in Mali is still high. Given the country's current security context, the findings in this study can support prevention activities, particularly given the limited resources available. It is essential to facilitate antenatal and postnatal visits, to promote in-facility births and rigorous monitoring of neonates at high risk of sepsis. Furthermore, it would be beneficial for future research on neonatal sepsis to include neonates born at home.
