Simple position change could keep babies off breathing machines

NCT ID NCT03976895

Summary

This study tested whether placing infants face-down (prone position) while they receive oxygen through a nasal tube helps them breathe better during severe bronchiolitis. Researchers compared this to the traditional face-up position to see if it reduced the need for more intensive breathing support machines. The trial involved 452 infants under 6 months old hospitalized with moderate to severe bronchiolitis.
