Study of bronchiolitis in hospitalized children
Part of Infections, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child is between 1 month and 2 years old.
- Your child currently has a breathing problem called bronchiolitis, with symptoms like wheezing (a whistling sound when breathing), fast breathing, and chest retractions (skin pulling in between ribs).
- Your child's bronchiolitis has been confirmed by a lung doctor (pediatric pulmonologist).
- Your child does NOT have any heart problems, chronic lung disease, weak immune system, or muscle/nerve disorders.
- Your child has not had frequent wheezing before that suggests asthma, and has not taken steroid medicine or antibiotics within the last 2 weeks.

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.
This study looks at how the germs in a baby's gut and their immune system respond to bronchiolitis (a common lung infection). If your baby is under 12 months and gets bronchiolitis during the RSV season, their participation could help us understand why some babies get very sick and others don't.
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 is watching babies under 1 year old who are in the hospital with bronchiolitis. Doctors want to learn more about the virus and how the new preventive shot (nirsevimab) is working.
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 a medication called peginterferon to treat RSV bronchiolitis (a lung infection causing wheezing and breathing trouble) in children ages 6 months to 2 years. It aims to see if the drug helps them recover faster.
