Abstract
We have read with great interest the article published by Santiago Arias Arellano et al. on the risk factors associated with late neonatal sepsis. This study aims to determine the neonatal risk factors for the use of invasive and maternal methods associated with neonatal sepsis (early and late) in a neonatology unit during 2016 in a hospital in Ecuador.
