METHODS We performed a cohort study with 111 hospitalized patients diagnosed with AVB receiving oxygen therapy through nasal prong. The outcomes were: length of admission...

متن کاملNeonatal bronchial hyperresponsiveness precedes acute severe viral bronchiolitis in infants.
BACKGROUND Respiratory syncytial virus and other respiratory tract viruses lead to common colds in most infants, whereas a minority develop acute severe bronchiolitis often requiring hospitalization. We hypothesized that such an excessive response to respiratory tract viral infection is caused by host factors reflected in pre-existing increased bronchial responsiveness. OBJECTIVE We sought to...
متن کاملComparing of two different epidemic seasons of bronchiolitis
Acute bronchiolitis is the most common cause of hospitalizations in infants < 12 months of age and preventive efforts remain the most important strategy to date. Recently prophylaxis with palivizumab (PLV) was limited to preterm infants with < 29 weeks gestational age (wGA).We performed a single center analysis in preterm infants (GA between 30 and 32 weeks) and age < 12 months to compare proph...
متن کاملNebulized 3% hypertonic saline solution treatment in hospitalized infants with viral bronchiolitis.
OBJECTIVE To determine the utility of inhaled hypertonic saline solution to treat infants hospitalized with viral bronchiolitis. DESIGN Randomized, double-blind, controlled trial. Fifty-two hospitalized infants (mean +/- SD age, 2.9 +/- 2.1 months) with viral bronchiolitis received either inhalation of epinephrine, 1.5 mg, in 4 mL of 0.9% saline solution (group 1; n = 25) or inhalation of epi...
