Early Prediction of Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia in Preterm Infants Using Clinical Data

Early Prediction of Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia in Preterm Infants Using Clinical Data from the First Three Postnatal Weeks with Large Language Models: A Retrospective Study This retrospective, observational study aims to evaluate the early prediction of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) in preterm infants using clinical data from the first, second, and third postnatal weeks. The study includes infants born before 32 weeks of gestation or weighing less than 1,500 grams, followed at the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit of Konya City Hospital. The study will compare the performance of different large language models (LLMs), including ChatGPT, Gemini, and Claude, in predicting BPD development. Clinical variables such as gestational age, birth weight, respiratory support, oxygen requirement, mechanical ventilation duration, and infection status will be used. Primary outcome: Accuracy of BPD risk prediction by each AI model compared to actual clinical outcomes. Secondary outcomes: Sensitivity and specificity of predictions, weekly prediction performance, and comparative performance among AI models. The results will provide insight into the potential clinical utility of AI-based approaches for early BPD risk assessment in preterm infants.

Inclusion Criteria: * Preterm infants born before 32 weeks of gestation or with birth weight \
