    throat culture vs sputum culture

    we have sputum culture done by RT at every visit. unless the child has very little sputum they try to get a sample since it seems to be more reliable, even though as others mentioned bugs can still be missed.

    Infant PFT

    My dd had infant pfts done when she was 1 yr old. Our hospital does them routinely as long as they can make them fall asleep (which was not the case for my dd this year). She did not have any strange reaction to it that i can remember.
