NCT ID NCT07243652
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Sep 11, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study looks at two different approaches to help doctors and families avoid unnecessary follow-up visits after a child is hospitalized for bronchiolitis. About 2,700 children will take part to see which method works better at encouraging follow-up only when needed. The goal is to reduce extra visits that don't help the child recover.
