Results
As an example, for a preterm infant born at 26 3/7 weeks PMA (GA* = − 2.81), with an incomplete course of antenatal corticoids (antenatal steroid** = 1), a BW of 600 g (BW* = −6.33), with 3 days of MV (MV* = −0.035), who received surfactant (surfactant** = 1), was treated for PDA (PDA** = 1) and had no proven infection (infection** = 0), the score would be 0.7 and the risk of developing BPD28 would be 66.3%. If the score was calculated for the same patient 1 week later after an additional 7 days of MV, the score would increase to 1.6 and therefore the probability to develop BPD would be 83%. As another example, the BPD36 risk score for this same premature infant born with 3 days of MV (MV* = 0.35),who received surfactant (surfactant** = 1), and was treated for PDA (PDA** = 1) without infection (infection** = 0) would be − 1.21 and the risk of developing BPD36 would be 22.89%. This risk would increase to 48.65% if the duration of MV increased to 10 days.
