• Meconium

    Meconium is the earliest stool of an infant. Unlike later feces, meconium is composed of materials ingested during the time the infant spends in the uterus: intestinal epithelial cells, lanugo, mucus, amniotic fluid, bile, and water. Meconium, unlike later feces, is viscous and sticky like tar, its color usually being a very dark olive green; it is almost odorless.

     
  • Aspirate (Pulmonary/Meconium)

    Aspirate to inhale liquid into the lungs, or to remove liquid from the lungs with a suction device.
