Transient @entity33680 ( @entity33680 ) is one of the most common causes of perinatal @entity1353 and is traditionally diagnosed by chest x-ray. This study aimed to explore the diagnostic value of lung ultrasonography (LUS) for @entity33680 as well as differentiate it from @entity649 ( @entity649 ) by using LUS.From January 2013 to February 2014, 60 @entity1 who were diagnosed with @entity33680 based on medical history, clinical manifestations, arterial blood gas analysis, and chest radiography were recruited to the study group. During the same period, 40 hospitalized neonates with nonlung diseases and 20 @entity1 with @entity649 were recruited to the control group. In a quiet state, @entity1 were placed in the supine, lateral, or prone position for the examination. Each lung of every @entity1 was divided into 3 regions: the anterior, lateral, and posterior regions as bordered by the anterior axillary and posterior axillary lines. The probe was placed perpendicular to the ribs. Each region of both the lungs was carefully scanned.The common ultrasonographic manifestations of @entity33680 were double-lung point (DLP), @entity1986 or white lungs, @entity456 , and @entity2402 . A small number of @entity1 (20%) with @entity33680 exhibited @entity1143 , whereas the main ultrasonographic manifestation of @entity649 was @entity358 with air bronchograms, which does not occur in @entity33680 . The sensitivity and specificity of DLP for the diagnosis of @entity33680 were 76.7% and 100%, respectively.LUS can accurately and reliably diagnose @entity33680 . The DLP and @entity358 possess great value in the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of @entity33680 with @entity649 . Thus, we believe that LUS can be widely used in neonatal intensive care units.
