Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
To compare the success rates of high flow nasal cannula and indigenous nasal prong continuous positive airway pressure in the management of children with moderate to severe bronchiolitis within 24-hours of randomization.Timepoint: 24 hours

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
5. To compare the factor(s) associated with failure.Timepoint: 24 hours and hospital stay;6. To compare the serious adverse events (air leak syndrome, apnea, death).Timepoint: 24 hours and hospital stay;1. To compare the success rate after cross over of the intervention(s).Timepoint: 24 hours and Hospital Stay;2. To compare the need for mechanical ventilation (non-invasive or invasive).Timepoint: 24 hours and hospital stay;3. To compare the local skin lesions associated with application of interface. (skin lesion will be assessed as per “National Pressure Ulcer Advisory Panel definitions ?)Timepoint: 24 hours and hospital stay;4. To compare the length of hospital stay including pediatric intensive care unit stay.Timepoint: 24 hours and hospital stay
