Routine Tracheal Intubation and Meconium Suctioning in NonVigorous Neonates With Meconium-Stained Amniotic Fluid by Licea Bco Jose is a document available to read on EtoBox.

This systematic review and meta-analysis evaluates the effectiveness of endotracheal intubation and suctioning versus immediate resuscitation without intubation in non-vigorous neonates born through meconium-stained amniotic fluid. The analysis of six studies with 1026 patients found no significant differences in neonatal mortality, meconium aspiration syndrome, or other outcomes between the two approaches. The findings suggest insufficient evidence to support routine endotracheal suctioning in these cases.
