Cuidados de enfermería en recién nacidos con sepsis neonatal

This study focused on the nursing care provided to newborns with neonatal sepsis, with the intention of determining which actions would be most beneficial not only clinically but also improve maternal-infant bonding during hospitalization. Initial considerations were based on the fact that neonatal sepsis remains one of the leading causes of infant mortality, particularly within the first month of life. The method adopted was a systematic literature review following PRISMA guidelines. Several SPIDER criteria were applied to define the sample and the phenomenon of interest, including studies published from 2019 to 2025. We searched SciELO, PubMed, MDPI, and Google Scholar for qualitative, quantitative, and mixed studies that evaluated the clinical and nursing care intervention provided to infants diagnosed with sepsis. Among the most important findings, the value of certain clinical care and continuous monitoring with pre-established standardized protocols was highlighted. Staff training and maternal education also received considerable emphasis. Nursing care is considered fundamental in the prevention, treatment, and early recovery of newborns, helping to reduce morbidity and mortality and humanize hospitalization.
