Severity Scales for Children with Bronchiolitis in Hospital
Part of Infections, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study looks at how well different severity scales work for children hospitalized with bronchiolitis. It may help doctors better assess how sick a child is and guide their care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child must be between 5 weeks and 24 months old.
- Your child must be admitted to the hospital with bronchiolitis.
- Bronchiolitis must be diagnosed by a doctor based on symptoms like fast breathing, difficulty breathing (such as flaring nostrils or using extra muscles to breathe), pauses in breathing, or a crackling or whistling sound in the lungs.
- Your child cannot have a diagnosis or suspicion of asthma.

This study looks at children hospitalized with bronchiolitis (a lung infection that causes coughing and breathing trouble). It aims to understand what makes some children more likely to get very sick. By joining, researchers can learn more about risk factors and how to help children recover better.
This trial looks at how doctors treat babies hospitalized with bronchiolitis. It aims to understand which treatments are really needed and where care could be improved. If your baby was recently admitted for bronchiolitis, this study might help future babies get better, simpler care.
This study looks at how children with bronchiolitis (a common lung infection in babies) respond to breathing treatments. It will also check if genes or other traits play a role. The goal is to better understand which treatments work best.
This trial tests whether giving babies an “isotonic saline” (salt-water mist, like a very mild saline solution) can help children with bronchiolitis symptoms. It may help by safely loosening mucus and improving breathing, compared with standard care.
This study looks closely at why children feel short of breath (“dyspnea”) and how breathing symptoms change over time. Your child may help doctors improve understanding and care for breathing problems like asthma or other lung conditions.
This study looks at young children (ages 1-5) who have had severe wheezing episodes that needed hospital care. It aims to find biomarkers (clues in the body) that could help predict which children might develop asthma later.
