Abstract
The neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) is a specialized
nursery unit in a hospital that focuses on care for infants that
often are born with infection, complications, or other medical
conditions.
Chlamydia trachomatis is one of the most common sexually
transmitted infections.
A biostatistical retrospective analysis was conducted
examining 35,755 birth records for women in Kalamazoo
County.
Overall, there was an increased risk of NICU admission when a
mother was infected with C. trachomatis.
