Overview
Environmental control,hands hygiene, physical barriers and vaccination for common causes may reduce the risk of acute bronchitis acquiring.
Primary prevention
Effective measures for the primary prevention of acute bronchitis include environmental measures, hand hygiene, physical barriers, and vaccination.[1][2]
Environmental control
- Cigarette smoking, fumes and aerosols can irritate the airways and aggravate symptoms.
Hand Hygiene
- Hand hygiene is effective in reducing pathogen circulation.
Physical barriers
- Physical controls, such as masks, gowns, gloves and eye wear, may reduce the rate of transmission.
Vaccination
Vitamin A
- There is evidence to support that prescribing vitamin A may help to reduce the risk of lower respiratory tract infections in children.[3]
