Meconium aspiration syndrome--prevention and treatment.

abstract：:Low birthweight has been associated with diseases and disorders later in life. It has been suggested that this is caused by the impaired development of abdominal organs, especially in cases of growth retardation. Besides general malnutrition of the fetus, preferential bloodflow to the heart and brain may further depri...
