A27 BRONCHIECTASIS AND LUNG INFECTION: Epidemiological And Clinical Characteristics Of The Emergent Rsv-A On1 Strain In Infants With Bronchiolitis

A 0-8 clinical severity score based on respiratory rate, arterial oxygen saturation in room air, retraction and oral feeding ability were determined on admission. Interestingly, however, when stratifying infants according to severity score values 0-4 or 5-8, a significantly higher number of NA1 than...

Description
Summary:A 0-8 clinical severity score based on respiratory rate, arterial oxygen saturation in room air, retraction and oral feeding ability were determined on admission. Interestingly, however, when stratifying infants according to severity score values 0-4 or 5-8, a significantly higher number of NA1 than ON1 cases had 5-8 values (p=0.001). [...]respiratory rates and oral feeding ability were significantly worse in NA1 than ON1 cases and other clinical parameters were comparable between the two groups.
