What this trial studies

This clinical trial aims to assess the effectiveness of chest physiotherapy on the clinical outcomes of infants under 12 months diagnosed with bronchiolitis. The study involves two groups: one receiving routine hospital care and the other receiving chest physiotherapy administered by their mothers in addition to standard care. The trial will also evaluate whether an educational program enhances mothers' knowledge and practices regarding chest physiotherapy. Participants will be monitored for three days to determine the impact of the intervention.
