Inspired by .lisa’s beautiful post on this topic… though mine doesn’t quite give the emotional range of being a NICU nurse the same justice that hers does!

The third photo is, without a doubt, the worst experience of my entire career.

The ninth photo is my all-time favorite delivery story ever.

Meconium aspiration syndrome occurs when meconium is found in the respiratory tract, below the vocal cords.

Meconium aspiration syndrome is triggered in part by perinatal stress and asphyxia. Risk factors include term and post-dates gestation, fetal growth restriction, maternal hypertension and diabetes, substance abuse, fetal heart rate decelerations and bradycardia.

Signs and symptoms of meconium aspiration include adventitious breath sounds, the presence of a barrel chest, pallor and cyanosis along with meconium staining, and respiratory distress. Hyperexpansion and atelectasis are seen throughout the lung fields on chest x-ray, and may be accompanied by air leak syndromes due to ball-valve trapping of air.

The pathophysiology of meconium aspiration syndrome is quite complex and is owed in part to inflammation, surfactant inactivation, air trapping, and airway obstruction.

What have your experiences been caring for patients with meconium aspiration syndrome?
