Overview

Healthcare providers diagnose RSV by:

  • Talking to you about your medical history and current symptoms.
  • Doing a physical exam. This includes listening to your lungs with a stethoscope and checking your blood oxygen level with a pulse oximeter.
  • Doing a swab test to check your mucus for RSV.
  • Doing other tests like a chest X-ray to look for signs of complications.
