URI stands for Upper Respiratory Infection, which is commonly known as the common cold. It would be the appropriate term to document in the patient's chart. The other options such as CAO (Clear of All Obstructions), SOB (Shortness of Breath), CPAP (Continuous Positive Airway Pressure), and COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease) are not relevant to the diagnosis of the common cold.
