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.
