7. An 8­-year­-old girl is brought to the physician because of a 3­day history of fever, progressive cough, and sputum production. Examination at birth showed no abnormalities, but she has a history of respiratory problems since infancy. Her temperature is 37.5°C (99.5°F), pulse is 100/min, and respirations are 32/min. Pulse oximetry on room air shows an oxygen saturation of 84%. Examination shows clubbing, circumoral cyanosis, and a hyperexpanded chest. There are diffuse rhonchi bilaterally with end­-expiratory wheezing. An x­ray of the chest shows hyperinflation, scattered atelectasis, and chronic interstitial changes.
