Abstract

Acute otitis media (AOM) has been recognized as a coinfection in infants with acute bronchiolitis. We planned to investigate the effects of this coinfection on clinical and laboratory findings. 51 infants aged 1 -24 months who were hospitalized for acute bronchiolitis were included in this study. 45% of the subjects had AOM. Group 1 had only acute bronchiolitis whereas group 2 had AOM and bronchiolitis. Body temperature, bronchiolitis scores, duration of hospitalization and serum IgE levels were similar in both groups (p>0.05). White blood cell counts, number of neutrophils and CRP levels were higher in group 2 than group 1 and the difference was statistically significant (p>0.05). Our findings are consistent with the reports which recognize AOM as a bacterial infection accompanying acute bronchiolitis.

Özet

İnfantlarda akut bronşiyolite, akut otitis medianm (AOM) koenfeksiyon olarak sıklıkla eşlik ettiği bilinmektedir. Bu çalışmada, akut bronşiyolit ve AOM birlikteliğini ve bu birlikteliğin bronşiyolit olgularının klinik ve laboratuvar değerlerine etkisini incelemeyi amaçladık. Çalışmaya 1 -24 ay arası, akut başlangıçlı 51 bronşiyolit olgusu dahil edildi. Olgular sadece bronşiyolit ve bronşiyolit + AOM olarak iki gruba ayrıldı. Her iki grupta da 4-7 ay arası olguların oranı en yüksek sayıdaydı. Tüm olguların %45'inde AOM tespit edildi, iki grubun rektal ateş ölçümleri, bronşiyolit klinik skorları ve hastanede kalış süreleri açısından karşılaştırılmasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı fark bulunmadı (p>0.05). iki grubun serum IgE değerleri arasında da anlamlı fark yoktu (p>0.05). Bronşiyolit ve AOM grubunda lökosit sayıları, nötrofil yüzdeleri, CRP değerleri, sadece bronşiyolitli olan gruptan anlamlı olarak yüksek bulundu (p
