    Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness of the use of 3% hypertonic solution versus 0.9% saline solution in children under 2 years of age with bronchiolitis who receive nebulizations. Materials and methods: The type of study is a systematic review, and this is of literature published during the period 2011-2016, 10 articles were selected, subjected to a critical reading, using the GRADE SYSTEM to identify the degree of evidence and strength recommendation of each article. 70% of the articles show that there is effectiveness of a 3% hypertonic solution, since it reduces hospital stay, admission rate, shorter oxygen therapy time, lower economic cost and fewer side effects compared to saline solution 0.9 %. Conclusions: Our study demonstrates a firm evidence base for the use of 3% hypertonic solution in bronchiolitis in children under two years of age, being more effective compared to 0.9% saline solution.
