Implementation of the NICE bronchiolitis guideline supported by a simple educational intervention can effectively reduce the number of inappropriate chest radiographs and antibiotic prescribing in bronchiolitis, and enhance compliance with the NICE guideline. What is Known: • Bronchiolitis management in paediatric units in the UK is variable, with poor evidence for existing guidance. Best available evidence was compiled into the NICE guideline, aiming to standardize care. • Some evidence exists for the effectiveness of quality improvement approaches to improve the management of bronchiolitis. What is New: • NICE guidance can be effectively applied to a department using simple educational tools. • Effective NICE implementation reduces the rates of unnecessary chest radiograph and antibiotic administration for patients admitted with bronchiolitis in District General Hospitals.
