Lung ultrasound is a useful diagnostic tool that is quick, requires little training, and is radiation free. &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Objective:&lt;\/i&gt;&lt;\/b&gt; This study aims to analyze whether early lung ultrasound can predict respiratory failure. &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Methods:&lt;\/i&gt;&lt;\/b&gt; From January to December 2014, lung ultrasound was performed on neonates admitted with breathing difficulties if they were older than 32 weeks and not intubated. A neonatologist, not aware of the patient's clinical condition, analyzed the stored ultrasound images. The findings were classified into the following 2 groups according to the potential risk of a bad respiratory outcome: low risk (normal or transient tachypnea of the newborn) or high risk (respiratory distress syndrome, meconium aspiration syndrome, pneumothorax, or pneumonia). A second investigator made the same classification after reading the chest X-rays. Respiratory failure was defined as a need for mechanical ventilation during the first day of life. &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Results:&lt;\/i&gt;&lt;\/b&gt; In total, 105 neonates were recruited (64.8% in the low-risk sonography group and 35.2% in the high-risk sonography group). Of those, 20% needed intubation, and this was more frequent in the high-risk group (relative risk = 17.5; 95% CI 4.3-70.9, p &lt; 0.01). As predictors of respiratory failure, lung ultrasound and chest X-ray showed a high index of agreement (&amp;#x03BA; coefficient = 0.91; 95% CI 0.83-1, p &lt; 0.01) and good accuracy (ultrasound: 95% sensitivity, 82.5% specificity, and a negative predictive value of 98.5%). &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Conclusions:&lt;\/i&gt;&lt;\/b&gt; Early lung ultrasound is a useful tool to determine which neonates admitted with respiratory distress will require mechanical ventilation. It may help the clinician to carrying out appropriate transfers.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1159\/000445932","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2016,5,24]],"date-time":"2016-05-24T22:57:43Z","timestamp":1464130663000},"page":"198-203","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":56,"title":["Lung Ultrasound as a Predictor of Mechanical Ventilation in Neonates Older than 32 Weeks"],"prefix":"10.1159","volume":"110","author":[{"given":"Javier","family":"Rodr\u00edguez-Fanjul","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Carla","family":"Balcells","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Victoria","family":"Aldecoa-Bilbao","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Julio","family":"Moreno","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mart\u00edn","family":"Iriondo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"127","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2016,5,25]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1440-1754.2004.00425.x"},{"key":"ref2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00000542-200401000-00006"},{"key":"ref3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0378-3782(13)70006-9"},{"key":"ref4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/000992289703600506"},{"key":"ref5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1542\/peds.2013-3924"},{"key":"ref6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1159\/000097454"},{"key":"ref7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1164\/ajrccm.156.5.96-07096"},{"key":"ref8","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1159\/000113059"},{"key":"ref9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0378-3782(14)50011-4"},{"key":"ref10","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/bcr-2014-206803"},{"key":"ref11","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1378\/chest.13-2852"},{"key":"ref12","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1053\/prrv.2001.0169"},{"key":"ref13","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/BF02011835"},{"key":"ref14","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/14651858.CD003063.pub3"},{"key":"ref15","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/cc11865"},{"key":"ref16","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/jamapediatrics.2015.1797"},{"key":"ref17","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.chest.2015.12.024"},{"key":"ref18","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/MD.0000000000000197"},{"key":"ref19","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3109\/14767058.2013.844125"},{"key":"ref20","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1378\/chest.10-2338"}],"container-title":["Neonatology"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.karger.com\/Article\/Pdf\/445932","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/www.karger.com\/Article\/Pdf\/445932","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/www.karger.com\/Article\/Pdf\/445932","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2025,4,23]],"date-time":"2025-04-23T18:03:06Z","timestamp":1745431386000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/karger.com\/article\/doi\/10.1159\/000445932"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2016]]},"references-count":20,"journal-issue":{"issue":"3","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2016,9,15]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1159\/000445932","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["1661-7800","1661-7819"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1661-7800","type":"print"},{"value":"1661-7819","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2016]]}}}
