Gestational age-specific predicted risk of neonatal respiratory distress syndrome using lamellar body count and surfactant-to-albumin ratio in amniotic fluid

Article Abstract:

A study was undertaken to study the statistical correlation between lecithin and surfactant-to-albumin ratio in amniotic fluid. It was concluded that the ratio was equally accurate and lecithin ratio significantly eliminated false positive cases of fetal lung maturity.
