Measure
NoseFrida
If randomized to the NoseFrida group, the NoseFrida/filters will be given along with educational instruction of its use to the parents of patients admitted with bronchiolitis. The NoseFrida will be used by the parent to suction the nares of their infants/toddlers. NoseFrida: The NoseFrida has four components, the collection container, an interchangeable filter, flexible tubing and a mouth piece. The end of the collection devise is placed on the patient's nostril, a tight seal is made via the vacuum created from suctioning of the mouth piece and secretions are easily aspirated. This device disassembles for quick disinfecting and cleaning.
NeoSucker
The NeoSucker (used for nasal suctioning) is part of the current standard of care for patients with bronchiolitis. The NeoSucker is used for removing nasal secretions by a nurse or respiratory therapist. The NeoSucker is a plastic tube which is used to suction the secretions. The bedside nurse will continue to use the NeoSucker as needed. NoseFrida will not be used for this sub group of patients.

Timeframe: Participants will be followed for the duration of their stay in the EDOU, up to 48 Hours or end of hospitalization whichever is greater

Population: Parental satisfaction survey was only done on Nosefrida group since the Neosucker is the standard of care

A study specific survey was developed to measure parental satisfaction of the NoseFrida device. The parental satisfaction question responses were on a 5 point Likert Scale as follows: 1="Strongly Disagree", 2="Disagree", 3="Neutral", 4="Agree" and 5="Strongly Agree." The minimum value is strongly disagree and maximum is strongly agree. The likert scale assessed parental satisfaction with the use of the device.
