Some neonatal infections can be apparent soon after delivery while others may develop in a week or month. There is a higher risk of complication for the premature and low birth weight neonates. Infection to the infants may cause by various means such as bacteria, virus, fungi, protozoan and other infectious agents. Some diseases in neonate occur due to the genetic and environmental factors.
