Core Tip |
The study shows that a significant proportion of young children hospitalized for acute lower respiratory tract infection were associated with respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) and other viral infections. Early diagnosis of viral infections using a simple test such as the RSV and viral direct fluorescence assay test, in settings where PCR is not feasible, would be useful in the timely institution of appropriate care, minimization of antibiotic overuse, and appropriate follow-up care for complications and sequelae, potentially leading to a reduction of costs of medical care. |
