Abstract |
We had analyzed statistically 799 infants under one year old of age from Jan. 1, 1972 to Aug. 31, 1976. And we also compared ok above infants with the 51 cases of ophthalmia neonatrum. The results that we obtained were as below: 1. The highest causative organism for the ophthalmia neonatrum is Gonococcus (65.2%) and Staphylococcus is the next in order. 2. 42 patients (82.4%) had never taken any postnatal care including Crede's method. 3. All babies were born by vaginal delivery method in ophthalmia neonatrum. 4. Corneal perforation had occured in one patient due to ophthalmia neonatrum. 5. The annual increment of ophthalmia neonaturum was not distinct due to Chi square test, but sudden increment was noticed in 1976 without any special factot. |
