Care of infants with a change in respiratory status (based on consensus opinion). Change in respiratory status identified: increased cough, tachypnea, wheezing, oxygen desaturation, crackles. Clinicians should assess whether these indicate a mild or moderate-to-severe exacerbation. In most cases, significant oxygen desaturation or the presence of crackles will indicate a moderate-to-severe exacerbation.
