The article presents a case study of two infants with respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) acute bronchiolitis, examining the changes in lung sounds before and after inhalation of salbutamol. Topics discussed include the efficacy of bronchodilators, the distinction between wheezes and rhonchi, and the potential implications for future asthma development in children with acute bronchiolitis.
