Popis: | Background Scoring systems which quantify initial risks have an important role in aiding execution of optimum health services by pre- dicting morbidity and mortality. One of these is the score for neonatal acute physiology perinatal extention (SNAPPE), developed by Richardson in 1993 and simplified in 2001. It is derived of 6 variables from the physical and laboratory observation within the first 12 hours of admission, and 3 variables of perinatal risks of mortality. Objectives To assess the validity of SNAPPE II in predicting mor- tality at neonatal intensive care unit (NICU), Soetomo Hospital, Surabaya. The study was also undertaken to evolve the best cut-off score for predicting mortality. Methods Eighty newborns were admitted during a four-month period and were evaluated with the investigations as required for the specifi- cations of SNAPPE II. Neonates admitted >48 hours of age or after having been discharged, who were moved to lower newborn care |
