Acute Bronchiolitis
The SABRE Trial of Hypertonic Saline in Acute Bronchiolitis
Acute bronchiolitis is a common, distressing illness affecting children. A virus infects the lungs, and then the airways become blocked, leading to difficulties with breathing.
- Trial name
- SABRE (NCT01469845)
- Testing
- 3% hypertonic saline
- Where
- 9 sites in United Kingdom
- Volunteers
- 300 people, healthy volunteers welcome

- Smokeysal (NCT03851406)
- Testing
- 5% Hypertonic Saline, No treatment
