METHOD A total of 2530 adult patients presenting with LRTI in 12 European countries filled in a diary on any medication used before and after a primary care consultation. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Fatigue

  Symptoms include shortness of breath, weakness, fever, coughing and fatigue. There are a number of symptoms that are characteristic of lower respiratory tract infections. The two most common are bronchitis and edema. [en.wikipedia.org]

• Atelectasis

  Newborns with an atelectasis pattern on admission chest radiograph had greater at RSV-positive infants. CONCLUSION: Chest radiological patterns with lower respiratory tract infection in newborn infants due to RSV are a predictor of clinical outcome. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Nocardia Asteroides

  Rarely, airway colonisation is due to microorganisms that require specific treatment, such as Nocardia asteroides, Aspergillus spp., Alcaligenes xylosoxidans and Mycobacterium spp. 208. [doi.org]

• Chlamydia Trachomatis

  Chlamydia pneumonia, Mycoplasma pneumonia and Chlamydia trachomatis were determined by real-time PCR. A retrospective analysis was made of 479 patients with positive infection of adenovirus. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Treatment of acute bronchitis with antibiotics is common but controversial as their use has only moderate benefit weighted against potential side effects (nausea and vomiting), increased resistance, and cost of treatment in a self-limiting condition. [en.wikipedia.org]

The period of treatment for both the groups was 10 days, and minimum cost analysis was used to analyze the treatment. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

What classification should be used for treatment? Initial treatment has to be empiric. [doi.org]

Knowledge of local bacterial aetiology and antibiotic sensitivity patterns of LRTIs facilitates early introduction of proper empirical antibiotics, which can reduce the morbidity, mortality and improve prognosis particularly at peripheral level where [jebmh.com]

Despite this, their etiology or potential preventive measures are poorly assessed. • Bronchoalveolar lavage can be used to determine bacterial etiology of chronic LRTI. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Clinical-epidemiological information and nasopharyngeal samples were collected. Multiplex PCR assays were performed for screening 13 respiratory viruses. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Although the pathophysiological definition of acute bronchitis seems clear (an inflammation of the tracheobronchial tree in association with a generalised respiratory infection), the clinical definition of acute bronchitis is not standardised. [doi.org]
