Approach to care
Every diagnostic test should answer a precise clinical question.
In pediatric respiratory disease, medical history, clinical examination, symptom progression and diagnostic findings must be interpreted together to define priorities and follow-up.
Symptoms, age, clinical parameters and general condition are considered together.
Ultrasound and other investigations are used when they can meaningfully change management.
Clinical progress, warning signs and reassessment timing are explained clearly to the family.
