Official title
Ambulatory Respiratory Tract Infection Survey, Burden of Respiratory Syncitial Virus in the Era of Covid-19
Overview
Strengthening outpatient low respiratory tract infection surveillance to document the burden of Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV)
Detailed description
The study protocol is designed with three key components: 1. Build on existing PARI outpatient syndromic surveillance by adding laboratory multiplex testing of LRTI samples (RSV, Influenza, SARS-COV-2) 2. Follow all bronchiolitis through the PARI RWE database and document "patient journey" for 5 years after first medical visit 3. Review the electronic PARI data of three previous seasons in order to document the impact of LRTI attributable to RSV in children \< 2 years in France prior to enhanced surveillance
Interventions
- Diagnostic test nasopharyngeal samples
rapid antigen test for Sars Cov-2, influenza and RSV.
Primary outcome measures
- Frequency of otitis media associated or not with bronchiolitis due to RSV in outpatient pediatrics [Time frame: day of enrollment]
Secondary outcome measures (7)
- Proportion of RSV positive acute otitis media cases with or without associated bronchiolitis in outpatient settings [Time frame: day of enrollment]
- Impact of Nirsevimab on the burden of otitis media with or without bronchiolitis in outpatients [Time frame: day of enrollment]
- Proportion of otitis media cases attributable to SARS-CoV-2 in outpatient settings [Time frame: day of enrollment]
- Patient care pathway documentation [Time frame: day of enrollment, at days 15 and at 6 months after inclusion]
- Score of Quality of life [Time frame: 15 days and 6 months after inclusion]
- Socioeconomic impact: Parental work absenteeism [Time frame: 15 days and 6 months after inclusion]
- Demographic and clinical characteristics of included children [Time frame: day of enrollment]
