Discussion

Cross-sectional study shows significant correlation between arterial blood gas levels and acute bronchiolitis severity.

ABG analysis showed mean PO₂ significantly lower in severe acute bronchiolitis cases, indicating increased severity.
Among children with acute bronchiolitis, 21.2% were classified as severe, highlighting a critical health issue in infants.
The study analyzed arterial blood gas levels across 52 patients to explore the relationship between these levels and disease severity.
Findings suggest oxygen saturation and PO₂ levels can be important indicators of clinical severity in acute bronchiolitis.

Margana et al. (2025) studied this question.
