b. The most common virus causing bronchiolitis is respiratory syncytial

virus, or RSV, though there are other common viruses that can

cause

it as well.
c. Whatever virus is present will cause inflammation, epithelial cell

edema in the linings of the small airways, copious mucus

production, and even some necrosis.
d. The inflammation and epithelial cell edema cause airway

obstruction in the small bronchioles and alveolar epithelial cells.
e. The epithelial necrosis causes dense plugging of the bronchial

lining, which then causes airway resistance, atelectasis,

hyperinflation, and

increased mucus production.
f. Usually if the case is mild, the symptoms will last for 1-3 days

flaring, and respiratory distress.
