Description
Summary:The objective of the study is to evaluate the discriminative ability of nSOFA in newborns with sepsis.Subjects: The study was designed as retrospective, observational, and one-center. End points included assessment of the severity as per nSOFA and pSOFA; 28-day survival. 121 patients were enrolled in the study. Microsoft Excel (Graphpad Software, San Diego, California, USA) and MedCalc (v 7.1.0.0; MedCalc Software, Belgium) were used for the analysis.Results. A study of the discriminative power of the scores showed that both assessment systems had a good model quality. However, nSOFA had a statistically more significant (p < 0.05) area under the ROC curve (0.981± 0.014).Conclusion. The high value of the discriminative ability of the nSOFA scale indicates the feasibility of its use in patients with sepsis in neonatal intensive care units
