No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The aim of this study was to compare fetal lung elastography (FAE) values between groups with and without Respiratory Distress Syndrome (RDS) in preterm neonates and to evaluate the potential of FAE to predict the risk of developing RDS.

Conditions

  • Preterm Labor
  • Respiratory Distress Syndrome

Interventions

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

fetal lung elastography measurement

Elastography measurements are planned to be performed as in the studies "Feasibility of two-dimensional ultrasound shear wave elastography of human fetal lungs and liver: A pilot study" and "Feasibility of 2-D ultrasound shear wave elastography of fetal lungs in case of threatened preterm labour: a study protocol" in the literature examples section of the file.
