The tool below is intended for the use of clinicians trained and experienced in the care of newborn infants. 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 ...

The Kaiser Permanente neonatal early-onset sepsis calculator ( https://neonatalsepsiscalculator.kaiserpermanente.org) is a tool designed to improve the selection of neonates with suspected early ...
Background. Determining which babies should receive antibiotics for possible early onset sepsis (EOS) is challenging. An electronic risk calculator has been developed by Kaiser Permanente, providing an estimation of EOS risk for an individual baby. Use of the calculator resulted in a substantial reduction in antibiotic use in published studies (1)

Oct 12, 2023 · Background. Early-onset sepsis (EOS), defined as the isolation of pathogenic bacteria from a neonate’s blood or cerebrospinal fluid within 72 hours of birth, is an important cause of neonatal morbidity and mortality. 7 EOS is usually due to vertical transmission by contaminated amniotic fluid or during vaginal delivery from bacteria in the mother’s lower genital tract. 5 The mortality is ...
The use of the neonatal early-onset sepsis risk calculator, developed by Kaiser Permanente Northern California (CA, USA), is increasing for the management of late preterm and full term newborn babies at risk for early-onset sepsis. The calculator is based on a robust logistic regression model that provides quantitative individualised estimates ...
