About

Background. Acute respiratory infections in childhood have high incidence and morbimortality rates, generating significant sanitary and social costs. Due to its diversity of manifestations and clinical forms, the degree of severity varies widely.

Published acute respiratory infections assessment severity scales are mainly focused on acute bronchiolitis, but there is no validated scale to evaluate the effects of respiratory physiotherapy in acute respiratory infections in children.

Objective. To study the usefulness of the Acute Bronchiolitis Severity Scale to assess children under 24 months suffering from acute respiratory infections susceptible to receive outpatient respiratory physiotherapy treatment.

Methods. Pre-post assessment descriptive study using the Acute Bronchiolitis Severity Scale. Children under 24 months suffering from acute respiratory infection will be evaluated during the first outpatient respiratory physiotherapy treatment.
