Improved clinical and economic outcomes in severe bronchiolitis with pre-emptive nCPAP ventilatory strategy
2014
Purpose
Severe bronchiolitis is the leading cause of admission to the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU). Nasal continuous positive airway pressure (nCPAP) has become the primary respiratory support, replacing invasive mechanical ventilation (MV). Our objective was to evaluate the economic and clinical consequences following implementation of this respiratory strategy in our unit.
