    5. Study Description

    Brief Summary
    The investigators aimed to evaluate the effect of G-CSF administration in septic neonates on neutrophil production and CD11b expression.
    Detailed Description
    Neonates are susceptible to septicemia secondary to quantitative and qualitative neutrophilic defects. Granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) stimulates myeloid progenitor cell proliferation and induces selective neutrophil functions.
