Sponsor's own description

Children who are in a hospital with respiratory distress often have difficulty breathing, have thick mucus, and may find it hard to eat normally. Sometimes physical therapy is used to treat these children, but it is not entirely known which methods help the children's condition. The aim of this study is to evaluate the most common physiotherapy treatment method that is currently in use in Sweden for infants who are hospitalized with a lower respiratory infection.
