Preoperative Chest

To assess the value of routine preoperative chest x-ray films in pediatric patients, a prospective study of 1,500 patients, ages newborn to 19 years, was undertaken. Of all the patients, 7.5% demonstrated at least one roentgenographic abnormality, with 4.7% of the patients demonstrating a totally unsuspected significant roentgenographic anomaly. In 3.8% of the patients, surgery was either postponed or cancelled or the anesthetic technique was altered as a result of the roentgenographic finding. It is believed that the routine preoperative chest film is justified if the film is evaluated before surgery and the results clinically followed up.

McCarthy et al. in their article "Temperature Greater Than or Equal to 40 C in Children Less Than 24 Months of Age: A Prospective Study" (Pediatrics 59:663, May 1977) recommend using both WBC count (≥ 15,000/cu mm) and ESR (≥ 30 mm/hr) for screening febrile young children for pneumonia or bacteremia. If either is elevated they suggest doing blood cultures and taking a chest roentgenogram. However, in 25% of their patients with bacteremia and 42% of their patients with pneumonia neither WBC count nor ESR was elevated, leaving a sizable false-negative group.
