The data of the prospective study is presented. In conditions of the pediatric district, the population prevalence rate of acute bronchiolitis in children under two years was calculated to be 107 per 1000 cases. Two groups of children with mild and moderate bronchiolitis were examined: 52 patients were randomized to receive 3% or 0.9% sodium chloride solution; children of the comparison group from the adjacent section of the same polyclinic received antibiotics (15 children) and inhalation of berodual with saline (21 children). The evaluation of the severity of the course, the effectiveness of treatment, indications for the hospitalization were executed with the use of pulse oximetry and the Kristjansson scale. The clinical effectiveness of the use of hypertonic (3%) sodium chloride solution in the form of inhalations with the help of a compressor nebulizer as an adequate, safe and economical means of monotherapy in the mild and moderate course of acute bronchiolitis in children on an outpatient basis has been established
