Therewere no significant difference in factors associated with mortalityof neonatal sepsis such as gender (OR=0.44; 95% CI 0.19;1.014),referral patients (OR=1.61; 95% CI 0.195;.014), and bacterialgrowth culture (OR=1.96; 95% CI 0.856;4.44), except for birthweight which affected mortality (OR=6.29; 95% CI 2.57;15.42).Conclusion Birth weight affects mortality of neonatal sepsis inMoewardi Hospital.
