Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if lavender essential oil chest wraps relieve
cough in infants with bronchiolitis compared to standard care. Furthermore, the researchers
will evaluate if breathing difficulties, nighttime awakening and impact on parents will be
improved by the lavender oil chest wraps. Infants will be randomized to receive standard care
with the addition of lavender oil chest wraps or to receive standard care alone. The study
will take place in two locations in Switzerland, at the Geneva University Hospital and the
Fribourg Cantonal Hospital.
