Nebulised hypertonic saline solution for acute bronchiolitis in infants.

CONCLUSIONS: Nebulised hypertonic saline may modestly reduce length of stay among infants hospitalised with acute bronchiolitis and improve clinical severity score. Treatment with nebulised hypertonic saline may also reduce the risk of hospitalisation among outpatients and emergency department patients. However, we assessed the quality of the evidence as low to moderate. PMID: 29265171 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
