surfactant for his or her lungs to
function normally.

A

35 weeks

40
Q
  • the first intestinal discharge from newborns

    composed of lanugo, swallowed
    amniotic fluid, and intestinal
    secretions (eg, bile); 85-95% is water, the major liquid constituent
A

Meconium

41
Q

When a mother has __________, there is a lack of adequate blood flow to the baby, which can cause fetal distress, leading
to the untimely passage of meconium.

A

Placental insufficiency

42
Q

This is when the placenta does not carry adequate oxygen and nutrition for the fetus due to maternal underperfusion

A

Preeclampsia

43
Q

When the placental membranes are ruptured and amniotic fluid infection occurs

A

chorioamnionitis

44
Q

This leads to passage of meconium from neural
stimulation of a maturing gastrointestinal system.

A

45
Q

This is essential in order to confirm the diagnosis of meconium aspiration syndrome (MAS)

A
