Quality improvement initiative to reduce late-onset sepsis in very low birth weight preterm infants: a multicenter study from the Brazilian network on neonatal research

The project reduced LOS in most centers, although some clinical practices still need improvement. It demonstrates a reproducible, low-cost strategy with the potential to guide other neonatal units facing high sepsis incidence.

The project reduced LOS in most centers, although some clinical practices still need improvement. It demonstrates a reproducible, low-cost strategy with the potential to guide other neonatal units facing high sepsis incidence.
