We previously reported the 95%ile cutoff value of the serum procalcitonin (PCT) reference curve for preterm neonates and the combination of the 95%ile cutoff value of the serum PCT reference curve, C-reactive protein, white blood cell count, and IgM for term neonates in diagnosing early-onset bacterial infection (Diagnostics, 2020). This study aimed to verify the usefulness of this novel diagnostic criteria by comparing the use of antibiotics and the incidence of early-onset bacterial infection between pre- and post-introduction periods
Efficacy
Days of antibiotics therapy (DOT) per 1,000 patient-days up to 6 days after birth, newborn number (%) of usage antibiotics, and the incidence of early-onset bacterial infections
Interventional
Single arm
Non-randomized
Open -no one is blinded
Uncontrolled

We included newborns admitted to our NICU who underwent blood tests within 72 hours after birth between 2018, and 2022. They were divided into the pre-intervention (those who admitted before the introduction, n=737) or intervention (those who admitted after the introduction, n=686) groups
