Characterization of Pediatric Medical Conditions: Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) Associated Illness

The goal of this query was to estimate the cohort size and baseline characteristics of seven groups of patients with evidence of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV). The cohorts are individuals with a diagnosis of RSV (any setting, inpatient, and outpatient, separately), a diagnosis of bronchiolitis, a diagnosis of RSV or bronchiolitis, prior dispensings of palivizumab, or who obtained a diagnostic assay for RSV (PCR +/- Antigen), among children aged 1 month to 5 years of age, in the Sentinel Distributed Database (SDD).
