Abstract
Objective. Most clinical descriptions of invasive staphylococcal disease (ISD) in neonates date from before the mid-1980s, when neonatal viability and intensive care differed substantially from current standards. We aimed to describe the contemporary incidence, clinical features, and outcome of infants with ISD in a neonatal intensive care unit.Keywords
