Cardiac Echocardiography Findings in Previously Healthy Hospitalized Children With Bronchiolitis – a Retrospective Study
Although Echocardiographic assessment of healthy infants during bronchiolitis is normal in the vast majority of children, the noninvasive, non-irradiating nature of the assessment, combined with the possible detrimental repercussions of a missed congenital cardiac anomaly, suggests performing Echocardiography during an atypical or severe course of bronchiolitis. However, larger studies are required to assess the yield of Echocardiography in bronchiolitis.
