About

The video describes how to care for babies with bronchiolitis. It explains assessing a baby's health by checking their breathing, hydration, and alertness. Diagnosis is based on symptoms like a runny nose and cough. Routine tests are not needed unless the baby is very sick. Suctioning mucus helps them breathe better, and high-flow nasal cannula can support breathing if needed. The video also advises when to consider more advanced treatments like intubation for severe cases.
