Lung Ultrasound Score for Neonates by Athul is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This study investigates the diagnostic accuracy of a neonatal-adapted lung ultrasonography (LUS) score to assess oxygenation and predict surfactant needs in neonates under continuous positive airway pressure. The findings indicate that the LUS score correlates significantly with various oxygenation indices, particularly in preterm infants with a gestational age of less than 34 weeks, where it demonstrated high sensitivity and specificity for predicting surfactant administration. Overall, the LUS score is a
