Background Deimplementation, the systematic elimination of low-value practices, has
emerged as an important focus within implementation science. Bronchiolitis is the leading …

BACKGROUND: Because of the impact of continuous pulse oximetry (CPOX) on the
overdiagnosis of hypoxemia in bronchiolitis, the American Academy of Pediatrics and the …

Infants admitted to health-care centers with acute bronchiolitis are frequently monitored with
a pulse oximeter, a noninvasive method commonly used for measuring oxygen saturation …

Background Methods of sustaining the deimplementation of overused medical practices (ie,
practices not supported by evidence) are understudied. In pediatric hospital medicine …

OBJECTIVES: Cardiorespiratory and pulse oximetry monitoring in children who are
hospitalized should balance benefits of detecting deterioration with potential harms of alarm …

Importance Little is known about the natural course of oxygen desaturation in acute
bronchiolitis. Information on risk factors associated with desaturation as well as the time to …

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Clinicians commonly use continuous pulse oximetry
(CPOx) for hospitalized children with respiratory illnesses. The Choosing Wisely initiative …

BACKGROUND: Although most children with bronchiolitis only require supportive care,
some decompensate and require ventilatory support. We examined predictors of respiratory …
