Solution

The statement that would require follow-up is A. "Chest physiotherapy should be done before giving bronchodilators." This is incorrect because bronchodilators should be given before chest physiotherapy. The bronchodilators help to open up the airways, making the chest physiotherapy more effective. Therefore, if the parents made this statement, it would indicate a misunderstanding that needs to be corrected.
