Development and internal validation of a clinical prediction model for the needed level of care in preterm neonates
This prediction model demonstrates the feasibility of perinatal identification of very preterm neonates not in need of tertiary-level NICU care. Future research should focus on updating the model to a source population of women with imminent preterm birth.
