Stability of the cardiorespiratory system in the preterm (SCRIP) score
| Score variable | 2 | 1 | 0 | |
| Heart rate | 120 to 160 | 100 to 119 or 161 to 180 | <100 or >180 | |
| Oxygenation | If on room air | 95% to 100% and | 90% to 94% or | <90% or |
| If on oxygen | FiO2 0.21 | FiO2 0.22 to 0.30 | FiO2 >0.30 | |
| Respiration | If no respiratory support | 40 to 60/min and | 30 to 39 or 61 to 70/min or |
<30 or >70/min or |
| If respiratory support | None | CPAP/HFNC | MV | |
The Stability of the cardiorespiratory system in the preterm (SCRIP) score. Each of the parameters heart rate, oxygenation and respiration are graded 0 to 2 and summed up to 0 to 6.
CPAP, continuous positive airway pressure; FiO2, fraction of inspired oxygen; HFNC, high-flow nasal cannula; MV, mechanical ventilation.
