Neonatal Outcomes since the Implementation of No Routine Endotracheal Suctioning of Meconium-Stained Nonvigorous Neonates.

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the effect of the 2015 Neonatal Resuscitation Program recommendations of no routine endotracheal suctioning for nonvigorous neonates on the incidence of meconium aspiration syndrome (MAS) and death.
