Brief summary

Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.

The investigators aim to compare the standard bulb aspirator with that of a nasal oral aspirator. The hypothesis is that use of a nasal oral aspirator is more effective at removing nasal secretions in the treatment of bronchiolitis as measured by a predicted 50% decrease in the rate of unscheduled bronchiolitis return visits. The primary endpoint will be the number of unscheduled bronchiolitis return visits; secondary endpoints will include measurements of oral intake, respiratory relief, parental device preference and adverse events.
