description Context: Acute bronchitis is one of the most common causes of chronic respiratory diseases in childhood with a significant impact on children. Aim: The study aimed to evaluate the effect of nursing intervention on mothers' knowledge and practices regarding caring for their children suffering from acute bronchitis. Methods: A quasi-experimental design (one group pre/post-test). The study was conducted at the Pediatric Emergency Department and Outpatient clinic in children's hospital affiliated to Ain Shams University Hospitals. A convenient sample of 52 children newly diagnosed with acute bronchitis accompanied their mothers who were recruited for this study. Two tools were used to collect data: a structured interview questionnaire, and mothers' observation checklist. Results: The study shows that there was a highly statistically significant improvement found in the post-test compared to their pre-test, regarding the mothers' knowledge and practices related to the care of their children suffering from acute bronchitis. Conclusion: The implementation of a nursing intervention program improves the mothers' knowledge and practices related to their children with acute bronchitis. These study findings were supporting the study hypotheses. Continuous mothers' evaluation and monitoring for their knowledge and practices toward children with acute bronchitis are recommended in the pediatric emergency and outpatient clinics. Periodic health education for children and their mothers lead to improve their knowledge and practice regarding acute bronchitis.
