Description
Jinghui Zhang and seven colleagues run a randomized trial of ultrasound-guided lung treatment for early-born babies, in a twenty twenty-five study. Babies born before thirty-two weeks often lack lung surfactant, a soapy layer that keeps air sacs open. Standard guides dose it by symptoms and oxygen need. The team instead dosed by lung ultrasound scans and a scan score in eighty-nine infants.
The scan group needed breathing machines less often and for fewer days. They also used less surfactant, got the first dose sooner, and faced fewer X-ray exposures. The authors say scan guidance sharpens both diagnosis and dosing for this common newborn problem, sparing babies radiation and drug.
