- Resp rate < 24
- Heart rate 60-120 beats per minute
- Normal BP

Workup
- CXR
- Displaced visceral pleural line without lung markings between pleural line and chest wall
- Upright is best
- Expiratory films DO NOT improve accuracy[1]
- Lateral decubitus films with suspected side up do increase sensitivity. Good approach in pediatrics to avoid CT
- Supine CXR = deep sulcus sign
- CT Chest
- Very sensitive and specific
