Trial Outcomes & Findings for Heated Humidified Oxygen Compared to Dry Oxygen Therapy in Children With Bronchiolitis (NCT NCT02094664)

NCT ID: NCT02094664

Last Updated: 2018-01-08

Results Overview

The RDAI is a validated clinical scoring system to assess respiratory distress and has been used in several bronchiolitis studies. The RDAI is based on two variables, wheezing and retractions, in which points are applied to each to give a score ranging from 0 to 17. The higher the total score, the worse the subject was clinically. Reported are the absolute scores at each time point, for each arm. Baseline scores are reported in the Baseline Module.
