Une bronchiolite est une infection aiguë des voies aériennes inférieures d'origine virale, touchant les petites bronches du nourrisson et du jeune enfant et se transmettant sur un mode épidémique saisonnier. Les symptômes respiratoires sont souvent inquiétants pour les parents, mais cette maladie est le plus souvent bénigne. 99 % des bébés s'en sortent naturellement et seulement 0,3 % d'entre eux ont eu besoin d'être hospitalisés en 2021.
