There is a paucity of data regarding the predictive value of heart rate characteristics (HRC) monitoring for early diagnosis of late-onset neonatal sepsis (LOS) in daily clinical practice. Monitoring of heart rate characteristics provides valuable information to assist the early diagnosis of LOS across all gestational age groups. However, the strong influence of gestational age on positive and negative predictive values adds complexity to the interpretation of HRC indexes.
