Predictors for the Development of Referral-Warranted Retinopathy of Prematurity in the Telemedicine Approaches to Evaluating Acute-Phase Retinopathy of Prematurity (e-ROP) Study

When controlling for very low BW and prematurity, the presence of preplus disease, stage 2 ROP, retinal hemorrhage, and the need for ventilation at time of first study-related eye examination were strong independent predictors for RW-ROP. These predictors may help identify infants in need of timely eye examinations.
