About

This webinar discusses the rise in RSV cases causing bronchiolitis in infants, especially after a quiet season due to COVID-19. The session covers symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment of bronchiolitis, emphasizing supportive care like suctioning and hydration over medications or tests. High flow nasal cannula is discussed for severe cases but not recommended for mild ones. The doctors encourage questions during the presentation to help understand managing this illness better.
