Meconium pollution

Meconium contamination is amniotic fluid. The degree of amniotic fluid contaminated with amniotic fluid is yellow-green or brown. There is a large amount of meconium in it, which is thick and pasty. Amniotic fluid and meconium contamination is a more common clinical phenomenon in obstetrics. The fetus inhales meconium-stained amniotic fluid during birth, causing a series of symptoms such as suffocation and dyspnea. In severe cases, it develops into respiratory failure or death.
