Serial lung ultrasound in predicting the need for surfactant and respiratory course in preterm infants—multicentre observational study (SLURP)
• LUS performed within 3 h of life by operators of varying levels of experience and interpreted by expert predicted the need for surfactant deficiency in preterm infants. • Our research with a structured training programme enabled novice operators to perform LUS and achieve reasonable competency.
