**6. Diagnosis**

The outline for the diagnosis of pneumonia is highlighted in WHO/UNICEF Integrated Management of Childhood Illness (IMCI) guidelines. Fever and cough are the most common ones. Fever is present in 65–90% and cough in 75–96% of patients with pneumonia. Other typical respiratory complaints include sputum production, dyspnea, and chest pain [16]. In a hospital, there are numerous investigations available including radiography and microbiological methods to investigate pneumonia.
