which tests can be used for diagnosis of hyaline membrane disease
Answers:
These tests may be conducted to diagnose the disease:
*A blood gas analysis shows low oxygen and acidosis.
*A chest x-ray indicates respiratory distress (the lungs develop a characteristic "ground glass" appearance).
*Lung function studies may be necessary.
*Blood cultures and a sepsis work-up are usually done to rule out infection and sepsis as a cause of the respiratory distress.
Hope this helps, Good Luck.
