The EOS Calculator assists health care providers in assessing the risk of early-onset sepsis in newborns based on maternal and infant factors. 🤰🍼 By inputting various parameters, medical professionals can estimate the probability of sepsis and make informed decisions for patient care.
How to Use
Using the EOS Calculator is straightforward:
- Input the **Maternal Age**: Select a reasonable age range (15-50 years) due to higher risks associated with lower and upper age extremes.
- Enter the **Gestational Age**: The age of the fetus or newborn must fall between **20-42 weeks** for accurate assessment.
- Provide the number of **Previous Infections**: Share how many past infections have occurred (0-10).
- Click the **Calculate** button. 📊
