CRIB and SNAP: assessing the risk of death for preterm neonates

The performance of three scoring systems for assessing mortality risk for neonates—clinical risk index for babies (CRIB), score for neonatal acute physiology (SNAP), and SNAP's perinatal extension (SNAP-PE)—were tested in the same set of patients. In 222 neonates weighing less than 1500 g at bi...

Zusammenfassung:The performance of three scoring systems for assessing mortality risk for neonates—clinical risk index for babies (CRIB), score for neonatal acute physiology (SNAP), and SNAP's perinatal extension (SNAP-PE)—were tested in the same set of patients. In 222 neonates weighing less than 1500 g at birth, CRIB scores were significantly better for assessing mortality risk than SNAP (p=0 017) or SNAP-PE (p
