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 ...

Mar 1, 2021 · Neonatal early-onset sepsis (EOS) is an infrequent event, occurring in 0.3–0.5 per 1000 newborns, but many newborns with EOS initially appear well or have non-specific signs [1,2,3,4].Given the ...
The primary outcome of interest was a decrease in the use of antibiotics for EOS in neonates 34 weeks' gestation or more. Results: Over a 4-month period, prior to sepsis calculator implementation, antibiotic use for suspected EOS was 11% and blood culture was done on 14.8% of live births. After implementation of the sepsis calculator and ...
