Study Summary

The investigators hypothesize that ultrasonography of the newborn lung can be used as an effective diagnostic tool in neonates ≥ 28 weeks gestation with early symptoms of respiratory distress.

Primary Outcome

The primary endpoint is to determine whether lung ultrasound is comparable or superior to chest radiography: (1) in making the diagnosis of RDS and TTN and (2) in differentiating between RDS and TTN. Disease-specific lung ultrasound findings: (1) Double lung point in TTN and (2) lung white-out in RDS.
