Inclusion Criteria

  • Forty two infants admitted with bronchiolitis, who needed more than 40% oxygen therapy to maintain normal levels of arterial oxygen saturation. This was a pilot study.

  • 1. Clinical diagnosis of bronchiolitis (irrespective of whether respiratory syncitial virus was isolated)
  • 2. Age 1 year
  • 3. Presence of respiratory failure with fractional inspired oxygen (FiO2) 0.4 to achieve an arterial oxygen saturation (SaO2) of 96-99%.

Exclusion Criteria

  • Infants with bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD), congenital cardiac, pulmonary or neuromuscular diseases or signs of upper airway obstruction were excluded.
