Abstract Background: Clinical Risk Index of Babies (CRIB), Score for Neonatal Acute Physiology (SNAP), an update of the Clinical Risk Index for Babies score (CRIB II) and Score for Neonatal Acute Physiology - Perinatal Extension (SNAP-PE) are scoring devices developed in neonatal intensive care units. This study reviewed these scoring systems in critically ill neonates to determine how well th...

background: one of the most common methods of identifying mortality risk is the clinical risk index for babies scoring system (crib- ii). the aim of this study was assessing the value of crib- ii in predicting mortality risk in preterm and low birth weight infants in east azerbaijan- iran. materials and methods: this prospective cohort study was carried out in 2013-2014 during 6 months in nicus...

BACKGROUND Illness severity scores are increasingly used for risk adjustment in clinical research and quality assessment. Recently, a simplified version of the score for neonatal acute physiology (SNAPPE-II) and a revised clinical risk index for babies (CRIB-II) score have been published. AIM To compare the discriminatory ability and goodness of fit of CRIB, CRIB-II, and SNAPPE-II in a cohort...

OBJECTIVE We aimed to investigate the predictive value for severe adverse outcome of plasma protein measurements on day one of life in very preterm infants and to compare total plasma protein levels with the validated illness severity scores CRIB, CRIB-II, SNAP-II and SNAPPE-II, regarding their predictive ability for severe adverse outcome. METHODS We analyzed a cohort of infants born at 24-3...

BACKGROUND Neonatal deaths, especially among the Low Birth Weight (LBW) babies, are of major concern in the Newborn Unit (NBU) of Kenyatta National Hospital (KNH). Several instruments have been developed to predict initial mortality risk among the LBW babies. Among them is the scoring system Clinical Risk Index for Babies also known as CRIB II score. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the use of CRIB II s...

OBJECTIVE Validation of Clinical Risk Index for Babies (CRIB II) score in predicting the neonatal mortality in preterm neonates < or = 32 weeks gestational age. DESIGN Prospective cohort study. SETTING Tertiary care neonatal unit. SUBJECTS 86 consecutively born preterm neonates with gestational age < or = 32 weeks. METHODS The five variables related to CRIB II were recorded within the f...
