Resumen	SNAP-II is a six-variable physiological scoring system designed to quantify acute illness severity in very low birth weight (VLBW) neonates and predict mortality risk. Developed by Richardson and colleagues in 2001 as a refinement of the original SNAP, it incorporates readily available bedside physiological variables (mean blood pressure, lowest body temperature, hypoxemia, seizures, urine output, and sepsis indicators) measured within the first 12 hours of life. SNAP-II is widely used in neonatal quality improvement, clinical research, and benchmarking of NICU outcomes.	The NBAS, commonly known as the Brazelton Scale, is a comprehensive neurobehavioral assessment tool designed to evaluate the behavioral competencies of newborns. Developed by T. Berry Brazelton and colleagues in 1973 and refined through multiple editions, it examines 28 behavioral items and 18 elicited reflex items to characterize a newborn's neurological integrity, behavioral capabilities, and individuality. The NBAS has become a foundational instrument in developmental pediatrics, neonatal neurology, and early intervention research.
