RESULTS
We identified 628 admissions for croup. Significant interventions, defined as additional RE, helium-oxygen use, or PICU transfer, occurred in 142 patients (22.6%). A total of 137 children received additional RE on the inpatient ward, and 5 received RE and were transferred to the PICU. No patient was treated with helium-oxygen. A total 486 (77.4%) of patients did not receive significant interventions postadmission. Length of stay for children not requiring significant intervention was, on average, <24 hours (18.8 hours [SD 9.3]; range 1.2-111 hours). Children with tachypnea (odds ratio = 2.5; P = .002) on arrival to ED and patients who had ED radiographs (odds ratio = 1.7; P = .018) had increased odds of receiving a significant intervention after admission.
