The aim of this study was to evaluate Neurocognitive impairment after neonatal sepsis. Methods: this systematic review and meta-analysis of published papers from 2017 to 2021. We performed a search based on the following parameters: neonates and infants less than 90 days old diagnosed with sepsis who had neurocognitive outcomes or measures of developmental disability reported. Results: A total number of 2126 cases were with mean gestational age 28.3 weeks. the common organism was Staphylococcus. 3 studies with a total number of 610 shows cerebral palsy event with insignificant heterogeneity between studies p-value 0.0881 , I2 (inconsistency) 58.84% and 95% CI for I2 was 0.00 – 88.28. 10 studies with a total number of 2094 shows survival event with significant heterogeneity between studies p-value | ||||
