The neonatal early onset sepsis (EOS) calculator is a novel tool for antibiotic stewardship in newborns, associated with a reduction of empiric antibiotic treatment for suspected EOS. We studied if implementation of the EOS calculator results in less healthcare utilization and lower financial costs ...
Background The Kaiser Permanente early onset sepsis (EOS) calculator was introduced in 2016 for infants who were born at ≥35 weeks gestation or more (≥35GA) at a principal referral and specialist hospital for women and newborns in Western Australia to reduce unnecessary antibiotic administration ...
sepsis calculatorSuspected early-onset sepsis (EOS) remains a significant challenge for clinicians and often requires a balance between efficient sepsis care and antimicrobial stewardship. Low EOS incidence rates and widespread antibiotic use cause widespread overtreatment. Strategies for identifying high-risk...
OBJECTIVE: A recently described neonatal early-onset sepsis (EOS) calculator has the potential to reduce newborn antibiotic exposure but real world data from its use remains sparse. The objective of this study was to determine the impact... S Warren,M Garcia,C Hankins - 《Journal of Perinatolo...
Background: Neonatal sepsis is an important cause of morbidity and mortality.Aim of work: Study the diagnostic value of early-onset sepsis risk calculator (EOSR) and vitamin D as markers for early diagnosis of sepsis among the newborn in... H As,S Elmeneza,I Elbagoury - 《Systematic Revi...
Maternal chorioamnionitis is a major risk factor for neonatal early-onset sepsis (EOS) driving the use of empiric antibiotics in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). Utilization of the neonatal EOS calculator can guide the management and decrease antibiotic usage. Our objective is to safely ...
early-onset sepsis Comparison of the management recommendations of the Kaiser Permanente neonatal early-onset sepsis risk calculator (SRC) with NICE guideline CG149 in infants ≥34 weeks’ gestation who developed early-onset sepsisComparison of the management recommendations of the Kaiser Permanente ...
Purpose of review;Neonatal early-onset sepsis (EOS) is a very low-incidence, but potentially fatal condition among term and late preterm newborns. EOS algorithms based on risk-factor threshold values result in evaluation and empiric antibiotic treatment of large numbers of uninfected newborns, leadin...

To perform a systematic review assessing accuracy and completeness of diagnostic studies of procalcitonin (PCT) for early-onset neonatal sepsis (EONS) using the Standards for Reporting of Diagnostic Accuracy (STARD) initiative. EONS, diagnosed during the first 3 days of life, remains a common and ...
