I thought I posted this before but I did not, Pediatrcis 2011, prospective cohort study with 2574 patients under 21 years old. Interestingly, 16 % of patients had radiographic pneumonia.
Patients with chest pain, focal rales, duration of fever, and oximetry levels at triage were significant predictors of pneumonia. Among these hypoxia o2<92% had strongest predictor of pneumonia. their conclusion is history and physical examination findings can be used to risk stratify children for risk of radiographic pneumonia.
