Croup (or laryngotracheobronchitis)
respiratory condition that is usually triggered by an acute viral infection of the upper airway

The infection leads to swelling inside the throat, which interferes with normal breathing and produces the classical symptoms of a "barking" cough, stridor, and hoarseness

due to diphtheria

oral steroid/epinephrine (serious cases)

15% of all children
atelactasis
lack of gas exchange within alveoli, due to alveolar collapse or fluid consolidation.

It may affect part or all of one lung It is a condition where the alveoli are deflated, as distinct from pulmonary consolidation.
bronchiolitis
inflammation of bronchioles, smallest air passage of lung

90% of the patients are aged between 1 and 9 months old

refers to acute viral bronchiolitis, a common disease in infancy. This is most commonly caused by respiratory syncytial virus (RSV, also known as human pneumovirus).
