研究概览
简要总结
This prospective observational study is being taken up to predict the need of respiratory support at 28 days of life using point-of-care lung ultrasound scores in preterm neonates less than 32 weeks of gestational age. We hypothesize that since the LUS score reflects lung aeration, it will correlate with the need of respiratory support at 28 days of life. This can not only help in early prediction and intervention thus preventing respiratory morbidities but also in the counseling of parents about prognosis, financial burden, and follow-up respiratory care.
