Viral load in hospitalized infants with respiratory syncytial virus bronchiolitis: a three-way comparative analysis.

Publication date: Aug 01, 2024

Viral load measurement of Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) in acute bronchiolitis depends on specimen collection, viral load quantification, and transport media. The aim of this study was to investigate viral load in three-way-comparative analyses; nasal swab versus nasal wash, quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) versus cell tissue culture, and various transport media. A prospective cohort study of infants aged
