Abstract
There is a statistically significant correlation between LUS and echocardiographic data, suggesting their potential role as early predictors for respiratory outcomes in very preterm infants. • Lung ultrasound score (LUS) has shown good reliability in predicting bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) development. • Some echocardiographic data that characterized ventricular function was reported to be used to predict severe BPD. • There is a positive and statistically significant correlation between LUS and echocardiographic data at postnatal days 7 and 14. • The integrated use of LUS and echocardiographic data may have potential value in predicting BPD.
