interventional benefit was indicated for other outcomes, al-though it was not statistically significant based only on the two RCTs. Results from the analysis of outcomes from NRSs are consistent with those from RCTs and demonstrated a beneficial effect, which could be considered as supporting evidence. Conclusions: Lung lavage with diluted surfactant appeared to improve the clinical outcome in infants with MAS. Given that less than 100 infants were included in the two RCTs, the findings of this study may still be regarded as insufficient evidence. Further research will be needed to confirm the benefit as well as to refine the lavage technique. Copyright © 2011 S. Karger AG, Basel Background Meconium aspiration syndrome (MAS) is an impor-tan...
