Use this code only if it shows up on a chest X-ray as a problem or is causing '''significant respiratory distress''' which requires aggressive intervention. Retained secretions which required nasal or oral suctioning but are really not contributing to significant respiratory distress in a patient, this should not be coded as a significant problem.  [[User:TOstryzniuk|TOstryzniuk]] 15:11, 14 June 2011 (CDT)
