The patient continues to struggle breathing due to phlegm as reported by the mother. On examination, the patient displays signs of an ineffective airway such as the use of accessory muscles during breathing, presence of productive cough, tachypnea, sputum production, crackles on auscultation, and rapid shallow breathing. Vital signs show a temperature of 36.0°C, pulse of 97 bpm, respiratory rate of 36 bpm, blood pressure of 90/60, and oxygen saturation of 99%. The nursing care plan is to intervene in 4 hours to clear the airway and reduce respiratory distress through positioning, fluids, cough assistance, and monitoring for improvement.
