About

This guide helps doctors treat children with bronchiolitis in the emergency department (ED) and describes steps to diagnose and manage symptoms, like breathing problems, in young patients. The pathway includes recommendations for tests and treatments that are safe and effective. It also advises on when a child might need more care or can go home safely. The goal is to provide clear guidance for healthcare providers to ensure the best outcomes for children with bronchiolitis while minimizing unnecessary procedures or hospital stays.
