Bronchiolitis is a viral infection that mostly affects infants and children under the age of two. In most cases, children will get better without the need for additional tests or treatments. Despite this, more than half of children with bronchiolitis receive unnecessary tests and treatments, like antibiotics or chest X-rays.

This toolkit provides practical guidance to reduce unnecessary tests and treatments in children with typical bronchiolitis presenting to primary care or emergency department settings. This toolkit is designed to:

• Provide guidance on the assessment and management of bronchiolitis in otherwise healthy children and infants < 24 months old. 
• Increase adoption of structured and efficient communication practices that can address caregiver concerns on bronchiolitis diagnosis, symptom management, expected clinical course, and safety net planning.
• Provide clinician and patient tools that target some of the barriers to addressing overuse in bronchiolitis diagnosis and treatment that
  includes a focus on symptom management.
