Background: il Virus Respiratorio Sinciziale (VRS) colpisce il sistema respiratorio, causando sintomi lievi limitati alle vie aeree superiori. Lo scopo di questo studio, condotto nell’Ospedale di Novi Ligure, è stato quello di indagare le variazioni epidemiologiche e cliniche dei ricoveri per bronchiolite da VRS nel periodo pre e post-pandemia da SARS-CoV-2.
Materiali e Metodi: tutti i soggetti ricoverati per bronchiolite o infezioni respiratorie da VRS, presso il reparto di Pediatria tra gennaio 2016 e marzo 2023, sono stati arruolati. I dati sono stati raccolti in base a specifici codici SDO assegnati al paziente al momento della dimissione. I dati sono stati raccolti su 208 ricoveri per bronchiolite o infezione respiratoria da VRS, per un totale di 200 soggetti.
Risultati e Conclusioni: questo studio ha rilevato che l’incidenza dell’infezione e della sovrainfezione da VRS nei pazienti ricoverati per bronchiolite è aumentata rispetto al periodo pre-pandemico.
