NCT02586961

RandomizedParallel-groupQuadruple-blindTreatment

Summary

The combined administration of high dose of oral betamethasone and nebulization of adrenaline seems to be an attractive therapeutic alternative for reducing the rate of hospitalization for acute bronchiolitis treated in the emergency department. However, it is essential to confirm the trend previously observed with this treatment before using it in current practice.
