This is for my 48 days niece.  Suffering from klebsiella species with anemia and thrombocytopenia and in NICU for a month. Antibiotics started accordingly and few have been changed because of resistance. At present baby is on room air, NBM, Inj fosphomycin, Inj levoflox, Inj fluconazole, Syp duphalac, IVF with PPN. Baby has abdominal distension and is tensed. Any advice if this treatment can be done differently for quicker turnaround.

Baby having culture positive sepsis. And on antibiotics it may take time to recover. Baby having features of NEC so kept on NPO. I think the treating doctors may also plan for LP and keep the antibiotic course accordingly. As if now for this we have to give 14 days antibiotics. Any way treating Pediatrician or neonatologist may have better idea.
