CRIB II score versus gestational age and birth weight in preterm infant mortality prediction : who will win the bet?

In neonatology, various illness severity scores have beendeveloped to predict mortality and morbidity risk in neonates. The aim ofour study was to validate the ability of the ‘Clinical Risk Index for Babies’(CRIB) II score to predict mortality in neonates born before 32 weeks’gestation in a level 3 neonatal intensive care unit (NICU), setting.Materials and Methods. Prospective birth cohort study including all live-born neonates of 32 weeks’ gestation or less. . CRIB II score wascalculated and the predicted mortality was compared with the observedmortality. Discrimination (the ability of the score to correctly predictsurvival or death) was assessed by calculating the receiver operatingcharacteristic curve (ROC curve) and its associated area under the curve(AUC).SIGNA VITAE 2016 ; 11(1): 172 CRIB II score versus gestational age and birth weight in preterm infant mortality prediction: who will win the bet?
