introduction:The septic shock is a major concern of the neonatal intensive care units in the world because of its frequency and especially of its mortality which remains high in spite of the progress made in the quality of care and theearly management.Objectives:The aim of our study is to evaluate the epidemiological,clinical and prognostic aspects of neonatal septic shock, to define the main risk factors,to describe the treatment used and to specify the evolution and the outcomes of neonatal septic shock in the neonatal intensive care unit of MOHAMMED VI University Hospital Center of OUJDA.methodes:This is a retrospective and descriptive study of 27cases of neonatal septic shock performed over a period of 2 years from August 2016 to August 2018,including all newborns admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit for clinical confirmation of septic shock or developing during their hospitalization.results:27cases of septic shock were collected from 490 admissions in the neonatal intensive care unit;which represents an incidence of 5.51%.Prematurity represents the majority of cases with an incidence of 59%;with a predominance of males with an incidence of 52% and 46% of all newborns had low weight birth.81% of newborns have presented between 1 and 3 failing organs;while 19% of them had>3 failing organs.The overall mortality was 89% with the most important death causes were:disseminated intravascular coagulation,heart failure and respiratory distress.Most of the results of our studies join the recent studies.conclusion:neonatal sepsis still remains an enigmatic area for neonatologists due to changes in epidemiology and the lack of ideal diagnostic markers.
