Abstract

Purpose: Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) and human rhinovirus (hRV) are the most common causes of child respiratory viral infections. We aimed to investigate epidemiological and clinical characteristics of RSV and hRV single infections and coinfections. Methods: Nasopharyngeal aspirates of hospitalized children aged <5 years were tested using multiplex reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) from October 2014 to April 2017. Their medical records were retrospectively reviewed. Results: RSV or hRV was detected in 384 patients who divided into 3 groups: patients with RSV (R group, n=258); patients with hRV (H group, n=99); and patients with both (RH group, n=27). The R group (median age, 6 months) consisted of 248 (96.1%) patients with lower respiratory tract infection (LRTI), and 14 (5.4%) needed oxygen inhalation. Infants aged <12 months (63.2%) had respiratory difficulty and were supplied oxygen more often. The H group (median age, 16 months) consisted of 56 (56.6%) patients with LRTI, 4 (4%) required oxygen inhalation, and 1 (1.0%) required mechanical ventilation. Infants (40.4%) showed longer hospitalization compared to patients aged ${\geq}12$ months (5 vs. 4 days, P<0.05). The RH group consisted of 24 (88.9%) patients with LRTI, and 2 (7.4%) needed oxygen inhalation. Hospitalization days and oxygen inhalation and mechanical ventilation rates did not differ between single infections (R and H groups) and coinfections (RH group). Conclusions: RSV was detected more often in younger patients and showed higher LRTI rates compared to hRV. Single infections and coinfections of RSV and hRV showed no difference in severity.

목적: 호흡기세포융합바이러스(RSV)와 라이노바이러스(hRV)는 소아의 호흡기 바이러스감염의 가장 흔한 원인이다. 본 연구는 RSV 혹은 hRV 감염으로 입원하는 소아의 역학, 임상적 특성, 혈액 검사 결과를 분석하고, 각 바이러스 단독 감염과 동시 감염 간의 임상적 특성 및 혈액 검사 결과를 비교하고자 하였다. 방법: 2014년 10월부터 2017년 4월까지 매년 10월부터 4월 사이에 원주세브란스기독병원 소아청소년과에 호흡기 증상으로 입원한 만 5세 미만의 환아 중, 비강인두도말 검체로 다중 역전사 실시간 중합효소연쇄반응 검사를 시행하여 RSV 혹은 hRV가 검출된 사례를 대상으로 의무기록을 후향적으로 분석하였다. 결과: 강원 지역 소아 호흡기 환자의 multiplex RT-PCR 바이러스 검출 패턴 상, RSV는 늦가을부터 초봄 사이, hRV는 연중 고르게 분포하였다. RSV 혹은 hRV가 검출된 총 384례 중 RSV는 258례(R group), hRV는 99례(H group)에서 단독으로 검출되었고, RSV와 hRV의 동시 검출은 27례에서 있었다(RH group). R군의 연령 중앙값은 6개월이었으며, 248례(96.1%)가 하기도 감염이었다. 산소치료는 14례(5.4%)에서 있었다. 12개월 미만의 영아가 반수 이상을 차지하였고(63.2%) 호흡곤란, 산소치료가 많았다. H군의 연령 중앙값은 16개월이었으며, 56례(56.6%)가 하기도 감염이었다. 산소치료는 4례(4.0%), 기계 호흡은 1례(1.0%)에서 시행하였다. 영아(40.4%)는 12개월 이상 환자보다 재원기간이 길었다(5 vs. 4 days, P<0.05). RH군의 경우 24례(88.9%)가 하기도 감염이었고, 산소치료는 2례(7.4%)에서 있었다. RH군은 R군 및 H군과 비교하여 재원기간, 산소치료 및 기계 호흡의 비율에 차이가 없어, 동시 감염과 단독 감염의 유의한 중증도 차이는 없는 것으로 나타났다. 결론: RSV는 hRV보다 더 어린 연령에서 잘 이환되고 하기도 감염의 비율이 높았다. 동시 감염된 환자의 임상증상은 RSV 감염의 특성이 보다 반영되었고, 단독 감염에 비해 중증도에 차이는 없었다.
