Nasal suction

Can someone help me with a coding question? I have a pediatric practice that did a deep suction of a patient's nasal pharynx. The reason for this was that the child could not breathe through their nose and they could not even get a saline wash to go through the nasal cavity. What code would you use for this procedure?

Thanks for any help.
