Abstract
The prevalence of bacterial profile of blood cultures and their susceptibility patterns in an area, provide guidance to start empirical treatment which is the cornerstone in the management of neonatal sepsis. This present study was aimed at determining the bacteriological profile and their antimicrobial susceptibility patterns in neonatal septicemia cases. About 346 datas were taken from medical record of neonates from 1 July 2011 - 31 Desember 2012. The bacterial were isolated using API’s method (Analytical Profile Index). Inclusion criteria were neonates with features of sepsis and had positive blood culture. Exclusion criteria, if the data was not complete. The result shows that the most common pathogens were Staphylococcus haemolyticus (15,3 %), followed by Klebsiella pneumoniae (13,3%) and Serratia marcescens (12,1%). Almost all microorganisms have high susceptible to imipenem and low susceptible to Ampicillin and Gentamicin. As the conclusion Staphylococcus haemolyticus is the most frequent gram-positve bacteria causing neonatal sepsis.
