A 5-month-old, otherwise healthy, former 35-week male infant, presented to our pediatric emergency department with the chief complaint of cough and "sucking in" at the chest. The patient was in his usual state of health until 1 day prior to presentation when he developed nasal congestion. Before coming into the hospital, the family noted decreased oral intake and only 3 wet diapers in the past 24 hours. No other past medical history was notable except intubation at time of delivery due to respiratory distress requiring surfactant administration. Past surgical history was significant for bilateral inguinal hernia repair and circumcision. He is on no medications currently and immunizations are up to date. He lives at home with his nonsmoking parents.In the emergency department, the patient's vitals were as follows: heart rate, 137; blood pressure, 94/51; temperature, 36.8; respiratory rate, 56; and pulse oximetry, 97% on room air. Physical examination revealed an infant in mild respiratory distress with tachypnea, subcostal retractions, clear nasal discharge, and coarse breath sounds throughout. The patient was treated with nasal suctioning, and the decision was made to send for chest radiograph.
