RSV, rhinovirus

18

CXR for respiratory distress

A

hyperinflation
air bronchograms
diffuse granularity

can look like group B strep as well
-so give antibiotics

22

prematurity

A

decreased surfactant
hypoxemia and CO2 retention
acidosis, hypoperfusion
endo and epithelial damage

fibrin > hyaline membrane formation
