Early identification of patients with neonatal sepsis who are at higher risk of death through the use of biomarkers is necessary. Therefore, the present work aims to determine the association between c-reactive protein and lethality in patients with neonatal sepsis treated at Hospital Essalud III - Iquitos, 2018-2020. For this, an observational, analytical, cross-sectional and retrospective study was carried out in 80 patients with a diagnosis of neonatal sepsis, 20 of them deceased considered as cases and 60 controls. The results showed that there is a statistically significant association between a positive value of c-reactive protein (> 5 mg / L) and lethality (OR = 17.8; 95% CI: 4.9 - 63.8; p <0.001).
