Abstrakt: Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection is a widespread among the youngest group of pediatric patients, especially in the young infant, when the immune system is just being formed. A lot of children up to 5 year-old suffer infection many times, not only because of easy pathogen transfer, but also primary incidence of disease doesn't give permanent immunity. This study retrospectively analyses a group of children with confirmed during epidemic period RSV infection. Particular attention was paid to the infection risk factors, varied clinical manifestations of infection, abnormal additional studies and accessible prophylactic action. The treatment and correlation between RSV, recurrent wheezing and asthma were discussed.
