Using this tool, the risk of early-onset sepsis can be calculated in an infant born >34 weeks gestation. The interactive calculator produces the probability of early onset sepsis per 1000 babies by entering values for the specified maternal risk factors along with the infant's clinical presentation.

Using the CDC national incidence of early-onset sepsis of 0.5 per 1,000 live births, the calculator estimates this infant's early-onset sepsis risk to be 2.12 per 1,000 births. After...
This freely available online tool can be used in assessment of early-onset sepsis (EOS) in newborns 34 weeks' gestation or more based on maternal risk factors and neonatal examination. However, many hospitals lack standard guidelines for its use, leading to provider discomfort with practice change.
Methods: A systematic review of randomized controlled trials (RCT) and non-RCTs reporting on outcomes after implementation of sepsis calculator for EOS for neonates >34-week gestation was conducted using the Cochrane methodology. Databases PubMed, CINAHL, Embase, Cochrane Central library and Google Scholar were searched in May 2019.
