The reasons for detecting Staphylococcus aureus in the blood of newborn babies may be umbilical cord infection, skin infection and so on.
1. Umbilical cord infection: The umbilical cord needs to be cut when the baby is born. If the area around the umbilical cord is not sterilized, it may lead to staphylococcus aureus entering the baby’s body through the umbilical cord, which may lead to staphylococcus aureus infection.
2. Skin infections: The skin is a relatively important protective barrier. A newborn baby with broken skin may have S. aureus enter the body through the broken skin.
If Staphylococcus aureus is detected in the blood of a newborn baby, it should be monitored and treated promptly.
