Neonatal sepsis (NS) is a clinical syndrome of systemic diseases, accompanied by bacteremia that occurs in the first month of life. Signs and symptoms of NS are nonspecific. The gold standard for the diagnosis of this disease is based on blood cultures which still have many shortcomings such as using blood samples that taken invasively, so it can cause traumatic and psychological problems, it takes a long time, and the costs are still relatively high. An alternative method which is simpler, not invasive, inexpensive, and does not require skilled operator are needed to diagnose NS. Saliva is a component of the body that can be used to diagnose a disease. Using saliva as a sample is relatively easier, non-invasive and does not require a skilled operator. On the other hand, Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) is a method to examine the structure of a compound that has been used to diagnose several diseases. Based on this, this present study will examine changes in the saliva of a newborn at risk of sepsis using FTIR. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
