To identify the neonates at the risk of having meconium aspiration syndrome, the perinatal characteristics and finding of fetal heart rate monitorings in 366 neonates who had meconium-stained amniotic fluid were retrospectively reviewed. The results were as follows ; 1) Overall incidence of MAS was 0.7%. 2) Mortality rate of MAS was 5.8%. 3) The mean Apgar scores at 1-and 5-minute were...

The authors observed the clinical findings of 36 patients with meconium aspiration syndrome(MAS) to evaluate the effect of early appropriated meconium suctioning on the morbidity and mortality of the syndrome. Patients in the study group, 20 babies born in Chonnam university Hospital, received appropriate meconium suction through endotracheal tube during and rig-ht after the delivery, while the patients in the...

Clin Exp Pediatr. 1988;31(10):1275-1280.   Published online October 31, 1988
We measured optical density of aqueous extracts of meconium and meconium stained amniotic fluid at 390 nm, 405 nm, 420 nm, 435 nm, 450 nm by spectrophotometry. We also applied the spectrophotometric method to the urine from 25 infants with clinical sign of meconium aspiration and from normal infants. The absorption band at 450 nm observed on the spectra of urine was estimated as...
