Abstract

The article presents a case study of two infants with respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) acute bronchiolitis, examining the changes in lung sounds before and after inhalation of salbutamol. Topics discussed include the efficacy of bronchodilators, the distinction between wheezes and rhonchi, and the potential implications for future asthma development in children with acute bronchiolitis.

Abstract

Parainfluenza virus (PIV) is a respiratory pathogen in young children and is second only to the respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) as a cause of lower respiratory tract infection. PIV type 3 (PIV3) is the most severe. Herein we describe an outbreak of PIV3 in three infants in a neonatal intensive care unit. They were diagnosed on virus culture from pharyngeal swabs. We prevented the spread of the virus using standard infection control procedures and isolation of the symptomatic infants. One infant had severe chronic lung disease and was complicated with recurrent wheezing for a long time. Because RSV and PIV have many structural, pathogenic, epidemiologic, and clinical similarities, we speculate that PIV infection causes recurrent wheezing, as observed with RSV infection. Therefore, physicians must consider recurrent wheezing at the time of treatment of PIV infection early in life. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Unlabelled: The objective of this study was to investigate the association hypothesis that outcome following respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) induced bronchiolitis (RSVB) and RSV induced wheeze (RSVW) are different. At 3 years respiratory symptoms were more common in those with RSV infection than the control group but there was no increase in allergic sensitisation (11% vs 10%). Those with RSVW were more likely to have evidence of allergic sensitisation when compared with RSVB subjects (22% vs 7%), and have increased symptoms and increased use of inhaled steroids.Conclusion: The data argue that RSV infection during infancy does not induce allergic asthma and that host factors rather than the virus determine long-term outcomes.
