ketoacidosis. Manifestations include signs of dehydration (
dry mucous membranes, hypotension, tachycardia),
incontinence (polyuria), vomiting, abdominal pain,

cyanosis, and wheezing noted on auscultation in the right
upper lobe of the lung field after a choking event 4 days

choking incident with subsequent failure to improve on

area of the pulmonary system is a high indicator for a
foreign body along with signs of hypoxia such as cyanosis,
tachypnea, tachycardia, increased respiratory effort,
agitation or lethargy, and elevated white blood cell counts
indicating an infectious process. The definitive treatment
would be a bronchoscopy in order to retrieve the
suspected foreign body instead of diagnostic tests to
locate the foreign body itself.
