Abstract:
A case of severe neonatal tetanus is reported which developed seven days after birth. The child was transferred to the intensive care unit where she was artificially ventilated for 25 days via a naso-tracheal catheter. The temperature and humidity of the inspired air were carefully controlled. Muscle relaxants and sedatives were given at 2-4 hours' interval.
