Abstract
Neonatal Intensive Care Units (NICU) around the world are in a constant battle against Early Onset Sepsis (EOS), a devastating infection of the newborn’s blood and/or cerebrospinal fluid (1) that results in death or major disability in 40% of affected infants (2). The Neonatal Early Onset Sepsis (NEOS) Calculator (3) was instituted in a single tertiary NICU in 2018 as a DNP Synthesis Project in order to examine the effects of the NEOS calculator on empiric antibiotic use (4,5), overall EOS evaluations, and provider adherence to the calculator while treating late preterm and term newborns.
