Identifying infants at risk of sudden unexpected death with an automated predictive risk model

CONCLUSIONS: The Hello Baby PRM can identify newborns at high risk of SUID and non-fatal unsafe sleep events. The ability to identify high-risk newborns prior to a negative outcome allows for individualized evaluation of high-risk families for modifiable risk factors which are potentially amenable to intervention. This approach is limited by the fact that not all counties can calculate a PRM or similar score automatically.PMID:38531245 | DOI:10.1016/j.chiabu.2024.106716
