ANSWER: D

Cool, humidified oxygen is given to relieve dyspnea, hypoxemia, and insensible fluid loss from
as as as as as as as as as as as as as


tachypnea. The infant should be positioned with the head and chest elevated at a 30- to 40-
as as as as as as as as as as as as as as as as



degree angle and the neck slightly extended to maintain an open airway and decrease
as as as as as as as as as as as as as



pressure on the diaphragm. The etiology of bronchiolitis is viral. Antibiotics are given
