Özet

Aim: Acute viral respiratory tract infection is the leading cause of hospitalization for infants and young children in developed countries and is a major cause of death in developing countries. The aim of this study was to identify the viruses in children hospitalized for lower respiratory tract infections (LRTI) during the winter period and to evaluate the relationship between the clinical features of these patients and the severity of their disease.
