Evaluation of the Neonatal Sequential Organ Failure Assessment and Mortality Risk in Neonates with Respiratory Distress Syndrome: A Retrospective Cohort Study
Abstract:Background: Respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) is one of the leading causes of neonatal death in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). Previous studies have suggested that the development of neonatal RDS may be associated with inflammation and lead to organ dysfunction.

The aim of this study was to clarify the … Show more
