Acute lower respiratory tract infections caused by PCR-proven viruses in the NICU

Abstract

Background: In recent years, detection of viruses by multiplex real time polymerase chain reaction allowed the isolation of causative viral agents.
Objectives: The primary objectives of this study were to determine the distribution of causative respiratory viruses in acute lower respiratory tract infections in the NICU and to compare the demographic and clinical characteristics of infants with RSV and non-RSV infections. The secondary aim was to determine risk factors requiring respiratory support.
Methods: This retrospective observational study was conducted between January 2016 and June 2019. The infants were divided into two groups as RSV and non-RSV, and compared. Risk factors for respiratory support by means of invasive/non-invasive ventilation were determined.
Results: Two hundred forty-three infants were hospitalized with the diagnosis of viral lower respiratory tract infections and a total of 119 infants, in which a causative viral agent could be isolated, were included in the study. RSV was the most common isolated virus (n=93, 78%). The demographic characteristics of infants in RSV and non-RSV groups were similar, except postnatal age. Infants were hospitalized most frequently in between December and February. In multivariate analysis, apnea and RSV were found to be risk factors for respiratory support requirement.
Conclusion: Since RSV-associated acute lower respiratory tract infections are the most common and require more respiratory support in the neonatal period, risk factors should be identified and preventive measures should be developed. Preventive strategies, raising awareness of families, careful and meticulous attitudes especially during high season might reduce the incidence and hospitalizations of the infants.

Manuscripts submitted to the Turkish Journal of Pediatric Disease will go through a double-blind peer-review process. Each submission will be reviewed by at least two external, independent peer reviewers who are experts in the field, in order to ensure an unbiased evaluation process. The editorial board will invite an external and independent editor to manage the evaluation processes of manuscripts submitted by editors or by the editorial board members of the journal. The Editor in Chief is the final authority in the decision-making process for all submissions. Articles accepted for publication in the Turkish Journal of Pediatrics are put in the order of publication, with at least 10 original articles in each issue, taking into account the acceptance dates. If the articles sent to the reviewers for evaluation are assessed as a senior for publication by the reviewers, the section editor and the editor considering all aspects (originality, high scientific quality and citation potential), it receives publication priority in addition to the articles assigned for the next issue.


The aim of the Turkish Journal of Pediatrics is to publish high-quality original research articles that will contribute to the international literature in the field of general pediatric health and diseases and its sub-branches. It also publishes editorial opinions, letters to the editor, reviews, case reports, book reviews, comments on previously published articles, meeting and conference proceedings, announcements, and biography. In addition to the field of child health and diseases, the journal also includes articles prepared in fields such as surgery, dentistry, public health, nutrition and dietetics, social services, human genetics, basic sciences, psychology, psychiatry, educational sciences, sociology and nursing, provided that they are related to this field. can be published.
