Article Synopsis
- * A case study involved a 22-hour-old neonate with severe hyperbilirubinemia due to ABO incompatibility, where traditional treatments were ineffective, leading to the off-label use of low-dose intravenous methylprednisolone, which improved the condition rapidly.
- * Managing severe NNJ poses challenges, especially in resource-limited settings, highlighting the need for further research on immunomodulatory treatments like methylprednisolone to assess their safety and effectiveness.
Background: Methicillin-Resistant (MRSA) is both a human commensal and a pathogen that causes neonatal infection which is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Its genetic flexibility and versatility have equipped it with the ability to develop resistance to numerous antibiotics. Outbreaks of infections in neonatal intensive care units as well as community infections have been reported mostly in developed countries.
