Seizures in Infants Hospitalized in Pediatric Intensive Care Unit for Bronchiolitis

Hospices Civils de Lyon805 enrolled

Overview

Bronchiolitis is the leading cause of pediatric intensive care unit admission in infants. Seizures during bronchiolitis may be a neurological complication of respiratory viruses but also of the treatments. The investigating team's hypothesis is that the incidence of seizures is not so so uncommon in infants hospitalized in the pediatric intensive care unit for severe bronchiolitis.
