AI for Good: Utilizing Machine Learning Tools to Navigate Late Onset Neonatal Sepsis

Late-onset neonatal sepsis is a global issue that affects thousands of infants in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) every year. With mortality and morbidity remaining a significant outcome of late-onset neonatal sepsis and progress plateauing, this article will explore how artificial intelligence can be utilized as a tool to assist NICU providers and nurses in administering timely treatment. Through exploring the use of machine learning in the NICU, we can hope to see a new standard of care developed for infants worldwide and prevent unnecessary death in our tiniest patients.
