Alonso-Ojembarrena A, et al. - In very low birth weight infants (VLBWI) with and without bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD), researchers characterized the evolution of a lung ultrasound score (LU score). For this investigation, they involved 59 VLBWI prospectively and performed LU in the first 24 and 72 hours of life, and then weekly until the postmenstrual age (PMA) of 36 weeks. In VLBWI without BPD, LU score increases during the first week of life and then decreases, while the LU score remains high up to 36 weeks of PMA among subjects with BPD. Findings suggested that LU score can predict BPD diagnosis at 1 week and 2 weeks of life, and at 4 weeks of life can predict moderate-severe BPD.
