Study Status: Not yet recruiting
Recruit Status: Not yet recruiting
Study Type: Interventional
Official Title: Meconium Aspiration Syndrome and Non-vigorous Neonates-Pilot Study
Brief Summary: Feasibility study to randomize non-vigorous newborn infants born through meconium-stained amniotic fluid to endotracheal suctioning or immediate resuscitation.
Detailed Summary: This will be a pilot feasibility trial of endotracheal intubation and suctioning versus routine resuscitation for term, non-vigorous newborns born through meconium-stained amniotic fluid to compare the incidence of meconium aspiration syndrome, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation or death.
