BRONCHIOLITIS

This study tested whether using HEPA air filters at home for 24 weeks helps babies under 1 year old recover from bronchiolitis. 230 infants who were hospitalized for the first time with bronchiolitis took part. Half received real HEPA filters in their bedroom and living area, whi…

This study looked at 80 children aged 1 month to 5 years with severe breathing problems from pneumonia or bronchiolitis. It compared two non-invasive breathing supports: High-Velocity Nasal Insufflation (HVNI) and nasal Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (nCPAP). The goal was to…

This study followed 29 infants who had bronchiolitis (a serious chest infection) in their first year to see if it leads to asthma by age 3. Researchers tested their lung function and did allergy skin tests at several checkpoints. Many children dropped out, but among those who sta…

This study tested a nurse-led weaning protocol for high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) oxygen therapy in 150 infants aged 1-24 months hospitalized with bronchiolitis. The goal was to see if a structured weaning plan could reduce time on oxygen, hospital stay, and costs. The study comp…

This study observed over 1,800 children hospitalized for serious breathing issues like bronchiolitis, pneumonia, or asthma. It aimed to track how many children under 12 months were hospitalized for bronchiolitis after a new immunization became available. The study did not test an…

This study looked at whether a set of care guidelines could help community hospitals use proven treatments for children with asthma, pneumonia, or bronchiolitis. Over 11,000 children participated across multiple hospitals. The goal was to see if these guidelines increased the use…

This study examined how treatment for respiratory infections (like bronchiolitis) varies among hospitalized children under 2 years old. Researchers analyzed records from 127 infants to see if differences in care affect how long they stay in the hospital. The goal was to understan…

This study looked at 46 infants under 2 years old in the pediatric ICU with severe bronchiolitis. Researchers used a heart ultrasound measurement called TAPSE to see if it could predict how long children would stay in the ICU or need a breathing tube. The goal was to learn if thi…
