Description
Veljkovic and colleagues build a risk score for babies born with a diaphragm defect, in work from 2026. Congenital diaphragmatic hernia makes early risk calls hard for care teams in intensive care. Standard child death scores may miss the special body changes that this defect brings in newborns.
Ninety-five patients treated at one centre over many years fed score building and tests. The adapted score uses first hours clinical and lab values plus early major care needs. It split survivors from non survivors with excellent accuracy in the cohort. Prediction of need for lung bypass support was fair to good in the same tests. Scores beat or matched two standard child scores, with bedside ease kept.
