مستخلص: | Introduction Lung diseases are the most frequently encountered form of diseases primarily affecting infants under one year of age. Although the chest X-ray is the first modality of choice, ultrasonography (USG) has emerged as an alternative. Lung ultrasound (LUS) finds its application in the evaluation of several pediatric lung diseases. Objective To assess the use of LUS in acute lower respiratory infections and assess the correlation between etiological diagnosis and radiological diagnosis. Methods This was a hospital-based prospective observational study conducted with children presenting with upper respiratory infections. Around 97 children were included in the study. Clinical diagnosis was made by the pediatrician. LUS was performed by a trained radiologist, using the two-dimensional (2D) ultrasound mode and motion mode (M mode) to assess the LUS in the respective areas of the chest, thereby assessing bilateral lung fields for these patients. Results The majority of our study participants were under one year old (87%), and more than half were male (55%). Bronchiolitis and lower respiratory tract infections (LRIs) were the most commonly seen clinical diagnoses. The distribution of USG findings was statistically significant across the clinical diagnosis (p-value < 0.05). Conclusion Our study found that LUS can serve as an important tool for diagnosing several acute respiratory diseases. It also showed that LUS can replace X-rays in cases of children diagnosed with acute respiratory diseases.
