INTRODUCTION: Clinical Practice Guidelines have been shown to be valuable tools for guiding medical decisions. However, their mere publication has not reduced the variability of practice in terms of the way acute bronchiolitis is managed.
METHOD: A before-and-after study design was used to analyse the effectiveness of a method of disseminating diagnostic recommendations among physicians regarding the management of infants, hospitalised due to bronchiolitis. Patients with comorbidities, ex-premature patients, and patients transferred to other hospitals were excluded. The diagnostic resources studied were: chest X-ray, full blood count, C-reactive protein, blood culture, venous blood gas, and determination of the respiratory syncytial virus. Eleven epidemic periods were analysed.
RESULTS: A total of 259 patients were studied including 98 in the pre-intervention group (2006-2010), and 131 in the post-intervention group (2011-2017). The intervention took place in October of 2010 and 2011. A comparison of the two periods showed that the use of chest X-rays dropped from 73.5% to 16% (p<.01), full blood counts from 51% to 21.4% (p<.01), C-reactive protein from 48% to 22.1% (p<.01), and blood cultures from 23.5% to 7.6% (p<.01). Length of stay dropped by 0.6 (SD: 1) days and there were no differences in re-admission rates.
CONCLUSIONS: The organised and systematised dissemination, using a multimodal method, of the diagnostic recommendations contained in the clinical practice guidelines on bronchiolitis, is capable of transforming the clinical practice by reducing the use of diagnostic resources, without an increase in the re-admission rate.
