Introduction: Acute bronchiolitis epidemics are known to destabilize healthcare structures and stand as a major public health issue. Our tertiary care regional university hospital designed an organizational infrastructure paediatric plan (OIPP) to adapt to bronchiolitis epidemics. This study aimed to assess the impact of the OIPP on the length of stay and quality of care of children hospitalized for bronchiolitis.

Results: A total of 1636 children were included in the study, with 718 children before and 918 children after the OIPP implementation.
