Abstract Aim To develop and validate a bronchiolitis severity scoring instrument for use by nurses other healthcare professions. Background Bronchiolitis is viral lower respiratory tract infection of infancy. In industrialized countries, admission rates have increased over the last decade with up to 3% all infants born being admitted hospital. A small number these hospitalized will require critical care either invasive or non‐invasive ventilation. During seasonal epidemic, unplanned...
Bronchiolitis is an acute lower respiratory infection which predominantly affects young children. Treatment for bronchiolitis limited to supportive therapy. Nasal oxygen therapy part of routine care, and delivery now incorporates varying levels non-invasive continuous positive airway pressure and/or high-flow nasal cannula Despite wide clinical use, there remains a lack evidence on the comparative effectiveness safety these interventions. Furthermore, research in this field hampered by use...

Introduction There is a substantial burden of respiratory disease in infants the sub-Saharan Africa region. Many health care providers (HCPs) that initially receive with distress may not be adequately skilled to differentiate between mild, moderate and severe symptoms, which contribute poor management outcome. Therefore, severity scores have potential contributing address this gap. Objectives field-test use two existing standardized bronchiolitis (LIBSS ReSViNET) population Rwandan (1–12...
