inhaled 7% hypertonic saline (HS)

7% hypertonic saline administered twice daily for 14 days by nebulization. A Pari Sprint Junior nebulizer equipped with a Pari Baby face mask and a Pari Proneb compressor will be used to administer the HS (PARI Respiratory Equipment, Inc., Midlothian, VA). To minimize the risk of cough and bronchospasm with HS inhalation, infants will be pre-treated prior to each dose of HS with albuterol by metered dose inhaler
