A chest radiograph was taken of a patient with RSV. What finding can be expected?
a. Elevated diaphragms
b. "Steeple point" sign
c. Lobar atelectasis
d. Pneumothorax
C
Secretions may completely occlude a lobar bronchus leading to lobar atelectasis. An infant with RSV is more likely to have depressed diaphragms due to air trapping. The "steeple point" sign is associated with croup. Pneumothorax is not a common finding in a neonate with RSV.
