Distribution and Clinical Features of Viral Respiratory Infections in Children After Face-To-Face Education in 2021-2022 Winter Period
Öz: Objective: Several public health measures were introduced to reduce viral transmission and disease spread at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic. These measures had the potential to impact the transmission of other respiratory viruses. In September 2021, schools started face to face in and an increase in viral respiratory infections was observed. This study aims to determine the distribution and clinical features of viral agents in this period when complete face-to-face education was started for the first time in Turkey. Material and Methods: Diagnosis and clinical data of the pediatric pa tients who were tested for respiratory viral infections between October 1, 2021-January 1, 2022 were retrospectively retrieved from hospital re cords. Viral agents detected by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in the nasopharyngeal aspirate samples obtained at the first application of the patients during the pandemic period were investigated. Results: There were 404 patients who were diagnosed with respirato ry tract infections and tested for respiratory viruses. The leading viral agents in children who applied to our center between October and December 2021 were COVID-19 (32.7%), multiple viral agents (23.9%), RSV (15.3%) and rhinovirus (8.7%). 43.8% of patients diagnosed with RSV needed hospitalization. Conclusion: Our study shows that after complete face-to-face education and, the viral diversity is observed again in this winter period like before the pandemic. The high rate of hospitalization in RSV cases was remarkable.
Anahtar Kelime: 2021-2022 Dönemi Yüz Yüze Eğitime Tam Geçiş Sonrası Çocuklarda Görülen Viral Solunum Yolu Virüslerinin Dağılımı ve Klinik Özellikleri
Öz: Giriş: COVID-19 pandemisinin başlangıcında viral bulaşmayı ve hasta lık yayılmasını azaltmak için çeşitli halk sağlığı önlemleri uygulamaya konuldu. Bu önlemler, diğer solunum yolu virüslerinin bulaşmasını da etkileme potansiyeline sahipti. Eylül 2021’de okullarda tamamen yüz yüze eğitime geçildi ve viral solunum yolu enfeksiyonlarında artış göz lemlendi. Bu çalışma, Türkiye’de ilk kez tam yüz yüze eğitimin başladığı bu dönemde viral etkenlerin dağılımını ve klinik özelliklerini belirlemeyi amaçlamaktadır. Gereç ve Yöntemler: 1 Ekim 2021-1 Ocak 2022 tarihleri arasında solunum yolu multipleks PCR testi yapılan çocuk hastaların tanı ve klinik verileri has tane kayıtlarından geriye dönük olarak alındı. Pandemi döneminde hasta ların ilk uygulamasında alınan nazofaringeal aspirat örneklerinde polime raz zincir reaksiyonu (PCR) ile saptanan viral ajanlar araştırıldı. Bulgular: Solunum yolu enfeksiyonu teşhisi koyulan 404 hasta vardı. Ekim-Aralık 2021 tarihleri arasında merkezimize başvuran çocuklar da önde gelen viral ajanlar COVID-19 (%32.7), çoklu viral ajan (%23.9), RSV (%15.3) ve rinovirüs (%8.7) olmuştur. RSV tanısı konan hastaların %48.3’ünün hastaneye yatırılması gerekmiştir. Sonuç: Çalışmamız, yüz yüze eğitime tamamen geçildikten sonra, pan demi öncesinde olduğu gibi kış dönemindeki viral çeşitliliğin yeniden gözlemlendiğini göstermiştir. RSV vakalarında hastaneye yatış oranının yüksek olması dikkat çekten önemli bir bulgudur.
