Neonatal sepsis is still a major cause of morbidity and mortality despite major advances in neonatal intensive care units. Early-onset sepsis (EOS) is an infection of the blood acquired vertically from the mother and manifests shortly after birth. The objective of this study is to assess the vitamin D status in neonates with Early onset sepsis (EOS) and evaluate the influence of different doses of vitamin D3 (800 IU/d versus 400 IU/d), in these infants.
