Abstract
A method and system for generating pulse oximetry predictive scores (POPS) for predicting adverse outcomes in preterm infants. The method comprising generating a POPS via a predictive algorithm which incorporates cross-correlation of heart rate and SpO2 calculated on archived pulse oximetry data of multiple preterm infants, and predicting a pathology of a preterm infant based on the generated POPS, wherein the pathology is intraventricular hemorrhage, late-onset sepsis, necrotizing enterocolitis, bronchopulmonary dysplasia, or retinopathy of prematurity, and informing a user of an opportunity to: identify the preterm infant as a highest risk infant and perform additional surveillance of or therapeutic intervention on the preterm infant, identify the preterm infant for participation in a clinical trial based on a risk profile associated with the POPS, and treat said preterm infant for the pathology.
