BackgroundWe aimed to compare the efficacy of nebulized hypertonic (3%, 5% and 7%) saline with normal saline in hospitalized infants with acute bronchiolitis.Materials and MethodsIn this triple-blinded randomized clinical trial, 120 children with moderate to severe bronchiolitis randomly assigned into four groups to receive nebulized normal saline (group A), saline 3% (group B), saline 5% (gro...
متن کامل7% Hypertonic Saline in Acute Bronchiolitis: A Randomized Controlled Trial

The authors used a modification of the oft-applied bronchiolitis severity score (BSS) by Wang, et al. [1] to evaluate the efficacy of treatment at multiple time points until discharge/ disposi...
