Predictive Value of Modified Lung Ultrasound Score for Late Respiratory Diseases in Premature Infants: A Retrospective Cohort Analysis

Journal of Clinical Ultrasound, EarlyView.
This study is to assess the predictive value of the modified lung ultrasound score (mLUS) for late respiratory diseases in premature infants born before 32 weeks of gestation. It is recommended that the use of mLUS scoring be promoted in clinical practice for the early screening of high‐risk preterm infants.
