Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study aims to evaluate new dosage of inflammatory markers or new inflammatory markers for the diagnosis of nosocomial bacterial infection. We made the hypothesis that these new dosages or new inflammatory markers could be more useful than dosage of inflammatory markers already used in clinical practice (especially the use of a combination of interleukins (6 or 8) and C-reactive protein for the management of newborns with a clinical suspicion of nosocomial bacterial infection and especially could allow to avoid excessive treatment with antibiotics
