A Systematic Review of Antenatal Risk Scoring Systems in India to Predict Adverse Neonatal Outcomes.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The purpose of antenatal care (ANC) is to identify 'at-risk' pregnant women, to provide quality care for all, and maximize the allocation of resources for those who need them the most. To address the synergistic effect of risk factors, clinicians across the globe developed antenatal scoring systems.

Objective

This review aims to investigate various antenatal risk scoring systems developed and used in India to predict adverse neonatal outcome.

Methods

We reviewed articles published between January 2000 and April 2020, which have either developed a scoring system or used a scoring system, among the Indian population. This systematic review is reported based on Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. Prediction m
