The National polio surveillance programme is one of the prime health projects in Nepal and its neighboring countries. A huge amount of effort and money is being pumped into polio surveillance in these areas. Vaccine associated Paralytic polio is one of the prime concerns as far as the side effects are considered. In the past there has been concern...
Sepsis is the commonest cause of neonatal mortality. However the incidence of the latter varies with the geographical area, the socio-economic structure and various customs and practices in the perinatal period. Till date there have been no published data regarding the latter in Nepal. With the neonatal services coming of age in Nepal it becomes pe...
S. epidermidis is commonly associated with catheter related sepsis with a unique property of biofilm formation. This genetically determined property aids its survival by the phenomenon of immune evasion. In all, IV catheter tips and two synchronous blood samples from 297 patients with intravenous catheters and ≥ 48 hours stay in KIMS were subjected...
Catheter related bloodstream infections are a major problem in most tertiary care hospitals. Among the various organisms associated with nosocomial infections, coagulase negative staphylococci are responsible for majority of the catheter related infections. They are usually resistant to standard antibiotics necessitating prolonged hospital stay and...
Serum resistance is an important virulence marker in uropathogenic E. coli (UPEC) but its pattern with respect to commensal gastrointestinal strains is less studied. We compared the serum resistance pattern of UPEC with commensal strains in stool samples from healthy individuals. A total of 40 isolates of UPEC (test) and intestinal E. coli (control...
Epidemiological data regarding catheter related blood stream infections (CRBI) in developing countries are scarce and essential to fabricate infection control and antibiotic prescription policies. Intravenous (IV) catheter tips and two synchronous blood samples from 297 patients with intravenous catheters and ≥ 48 hours stay were subjected to cultu...
Human milk fortifiers (HMF) make up for the nutrient deficit required by preterm, low birth weight neonates. With the availability of a new HMF in India, it was pertinent to test this nutritional advantage in the Indian preterms fed with fortified human milk in terms the bioavailability of the important nutrients. METHODS: Sixty preterm neonates we...

... Also, the high prevalence of small for gestational age (SGA) infants (nearly 18% in each group) could be another reason for inadequate weight gain in both the cohorts in our study. Two trials from India studied the use of multicomponent fortification of HM and concluded that various biochemical parameters (serum protein, calcium, phosphorus, sodium and potassium) were higher in the fortified group as compared with the control group [20,21]. Our study differed from the aforementioned studies, as we applied different strategy of fortification. ...
... 13 Diagnosis and management of neonatal sepsis is challenging due to nonspecific clinical feature and variable laboratory parameters. 14,15 Delay in identification and treatment of neonatal sepsis are among the main contributors to the high neonatal mortality. 16 On the other hand the survivors of neonatal sepsis are vulnerable to short and long term neuro developmental morbidity. ...
