Diagnostic utility of lung ultrasound in predicting the need for surfactant therapy in preterm neonates with respiratory distress

BackgroundLung ultrasound is an accurate and early predictor for surfactant replacement therapy in respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) as compared to clinical parameters and chest x-ray. However, lung pathologies for respiratory distress at birth have overlapping symptomatology and low middle-income...
