Prediction model to predict type 1 retinopathy of prematurity using gestational age and birth weight (PW-ROP)

The PW-ROP model is a simple model which could predict type 1 ROP with high sensitivity and specificity. Incorporating this model to ROP examination would help identify infants at risk for ROP treatment.
