Summary

This pilot study tested whether computer models could predict sepsis and necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) in very low birth weight infants (under 1500 grams). Researchers used existing NICU data to build and test these models. The goal was to see if this approach is feasible, not yet to change care. 144 infants were included.
