Bronchiolites en unité de réanimation pédiatrique : facteurs pronostiques et devenir respiratoire des nourrissons ventilés

Mechanical ventilation seems not to be associated with unfavorable respiratory outcome. Considering physiology and population, non invasive ventilation could be an effective alternative of mechanical ventilation.
